SCHOOLS AND GROUPS

MU offers schools and groups the opportunity to visit and experience exhibitions in a particular way. We organise guided tours and compile educational programmes for each of the various exhibitions. Groups can take part in workshops or carry out assignments that stimulate the participants to take an extra good look around. We also provide guest lessons for schools, and will gladly join in the conception of art projects for schools, to be held either intramurally or at MU, or both. Our educational programmes are made to measure. There is a programme for each level: from primary to secondary and higher education, and from vocational training to special education.

For regular updates on the programme, please subscribe to our newsletter via educatie@mu.nl. Read the most recent newsletter here (in Dutch).

Check under ‘Activities’ (menu on the right) to see what is currently on offer.

Traineeship. MU is looking for a trainee for the period from January to July 2013, and for the school year 2013-2014. The successful applicant will be offered the chance to explore new forms of extramural art education, and will participate in the current MU education programme.


FLIPLAB? FLIPLAB!

In 2013, MU will be launching the FlipLab. FlipLab turns the world upside-down by investigating how seniors can learn from juniors, and what they can pick up from each other. We will be making the most of the creativity and innovative strength of the younger generation and of the curiosity of the elderly.

This Lab is not only aimed at reinventing MU's own educational programme, but also, at introducing an older target group to new expressions of culture and art in an innovative manner. Moreover, MU sees this experiment as an active contribution to the innovation of creative education in the Eindhoven area. In 2013, we will start off with a number of pilot projects. As from 2014, the lab will present public programmes for seniors, made and presented by the young creatives at the FlipLab.

The MU FlipLab has an open structure and is looking for partners. We would very much like to invite anyone who is interested in learning and experimenting, or in joining a pilot project, to come and discuss the possibilities with us: for example, educational institutes, welfare organisations, artists, designers and/or companies.
In order to help us organise the pilots and to develop new learning tools and methods, we are particularly on the lookout for a masters student in social design or design cultures.

Please contact Vivian van Gaal, vivian@mu.nl, regarding the FlipLab and the traineeship.
