Education group visits
We offer free guided tours of Henry Moore Studios & Gardens to school, college and university groups, suitable from Year 3 upwards.
Education group visits can be booked on Wednesday to Friday each week during term time.

Educational visits
Bookings are now open for our 2023 visitor season, which runs from Wednesday 5 April until Sunday 29 October.
What’s included in your visit
You and your students will be accompanied by one of our Volunteer Guides for a tour of the grounds around Henry Moore’s home, studios and gardens, which present an awe-inspiring portfolio of his sculptural works and creative processes.
We encourage groups to think broadly about what subjects can be supported on site. Not just art and design, but also construction, engineering, architecture, mathematics, language, storytelling, history, the natural environment, the power of being part of a community and much more.
Your booking will include additional time for independent study. Feel free to sketch, write or take photos in the sculpture gardens, or use our interpretation room.

Guided tours
We offer two different guided tour options:
An introduction to Henry Moore’s figurative artworks, and the process of using shape and scale
45 minutes
This tour has been tailored in consultation with local teachers. Giving students an introduction to specific areas of study, it focuses on Moore’s figurative artworks and his use of shape and scale.
Our Guides are equipped with a tour kit of objects and imagery to encourage interactivity and spark thoughtful discussion.
This shorter form tour gives you more independent study time.
The art and life of Henry Moore
90 minutes
This longer form tour supports student research in more depth and detail by sharing information spanning Henry Moore’s lifetime.
Hear about how Moore’s upbringing, influences, experiences, peers and working processes have shaped his legacy past and present.
If you let us know in advance the topics you are studying in relation to your visit, our guides may be able to tailor this tour to your needs.
Introducing free workshops for schools
This year we have created a temporary project space in which we will be running free workshops for schools throughout June and July.
If you teach Primary School Juniors in Harlow or Stevenage, you can join us for a free site visit and workshop in 2023.
