It is a service aimed at school groups (preschool, primary, secondary, high school, training cycles) and also at adult schools, special education, school exchanges, art education, etc. It offers an advisory service and coordination of visits to the 3 Dalí museums (Dalí Theatre-Museum in Figueres, Gala Dalí Castle in Púbol and Salvador Dalí House in Portlligat), as well as a complete program of guided tours.
Information of interest
Educational visits and curriculum integration
The content of the visits is completely adapted to the different educational levels through a discourse that is at once imaginative, playful, rigorous and coherent. With highly participatory proposals, we want to provide teachers and students with the right tools for the study of one of the most significant artists of the 20th century. The corners of the Dalí Theatre-Museum in Figueres and the Gala Dalí Castle in Púbol become privileged spaces for the discovery of the artist. They are carried out in several languages: Catalan, Spanish, French and English.
The program offered by the Educational Service has the academic supervision of the Center for Dalinian Studies.
