Education

Education and learning are at the heart of the De La Warr Pavilion.  The world class programme and unique spaces provide inspiration for a wide range of projects and activities for people of all ages.

Our Education & Learning Programme aims to support and enable people to realise their own creative potential, and to enhance people's ability to engage with the contemporary arts at all levels - as audience, commentator and participant. 

DLWP is committed to developing a broad and diverse audience, and many events are free, or offered at minimal cost.

The new Studio is now the hub of our education and community programme, providing a flexible, welcoming space for talks, courses, rehearsals and hands-on practical workshops.

LATEST NEWS…

WOW online resource launched

Engaging, accessible and full of ideas on how the De La Warr Pavilion can be a resource for creative teaching and learning.

Aimed at schools and others who work with children and young people the resource came out of the Working Our Way 2 project, where the Pavilion worked in partnership with eight primary schools in Bexhill.

Screen South Digital Archive Fund
The De La Warr Pavilion, in partnership with Towner, Eastbourne and Willingdon Community School, has been awarded a grant from the region's film and media agency to fund a new project - Southern Discomfort.

The project will use archive film footage to inspire an exploration of the themes of 'home' and 'identity' with two groups of vulnerable young people - one in Bexhill and one in Eastbourne.

The young people will work with filmmaker George Butler to create their own responses to archive footage of the two towns made in the 60s and 70s.  All the work will be collated and shared through a new commission, created by George Butler using an innovate interactive software programme called Korsakov. 

The work will be exhibited in both galleries in Autumn 2010 and will also be available online.
