Bildmuseet offers free programmes for all age groups, from preschoolers to adult students. In the school programme, your class gets to meet exciting, interesting and current topics through contemporary art. The programme is always based on one of our exhibitions and is led by an art educator. We adapt the visit to the group and want to open up to new experiences and perspectives through the art experience, creation and conversation.
Within the municipality of Umeå, it is also possible to book a free bus to the visit. Read more about how to do this under "Before your visit".

Belkis Ayón / Mythologies
Ayón (1967–1999) is one of Cuba's most prominent artists. The exhibition highlights a creative peak in her short career. Ayón worked with collagraphy, a printmaking technique that she refined and used innovatively. Figures, symbols, and rituals in her works are drawn from Abakuá, a secret Afro-Cuban brotherhood that she explored throughout her artistic career. In the school programme, we explore techniques found in the exhibition and create inspired by myths, religions, and belief systems.
Bookable hours are Tuesday - Friday from 9:00 - 16.00. We adjust the content according to the students' age.
