Education

We take the pursuit of knowledge beyond books, exhibitions and classrooms – and beyond the museum walls.

All of our education programmes provide interactive opportunities. We hope that they create lasting memories and lead to the development of creative, compassionate and engaged individuals.

For schoolteachers and educators, we bring custom-made workshops, conferences and trainings to suit their needs. We also focus on working with children to encourage them to explore the world around them, engage with it, and express themselves through creative activities.

All of our activities align with Qatar Supreme Educational Council Professional Standards for Teachers and National Curriculum Standards.

“ We're committed to preserving our cultural and artistic heritage through the effective use of knowledge, experience and creativity. ”

Her Excellency Sheikha Al Mayassa bint Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani, Chairperson, Qatar Museums
