Summer family fun at home: free activities — Impressions Gallery

Get creative with our family activities to enjoy in your own home inspired by our exhibition! We are sad that we can’t do these activities in our gallery at the moment, but we hope you enjoy these fun activities at home.

All of the activities are inspired by our current exhibition Being Inbetween. The exhibition showcases 90 powerful portraits of girls aged between 10 and 12, who proudly pose for the camera and share their hopes, fears and ambitions for the future.

Watch our specially commissioned film Girl Power and meet some of the girls from the exhibition. Try your hand at making your very own photo collage exploring what you want to be when you grow up! Show off your drawing skills and create your very own self portrait that captures your personality, or be a gallery explorer, go on a quest to find photographs and solve the challenges.

We’d love to see what you make! Share your creations and tag us on social media @impgalleryphoto #SaturdayStop:
