Get involved and do more at the Barbican


We are working together with the Guildhall School of Music & Drama to create the international arts and learning centre of tomorrow. There are opportunities for you to get more involved with our world-class exhibitions, performances and events, whatever your age or previous experience.



The Barbican is a place where everyone can do, think, play, explore, experience and develop professional skills. Whether you want to attend a talk to find out more about a particular performance or exhibition, discover your artistic talents by joining one of our ensembles or develop your skills as an artist and leader, there’s a huge range of opportunities across all artforms.
