Bespoke School Trips to 

Barcelona

Barcelona is currently one of most popular destinations for Art & Design study trips.

With the capital of Catalonia, an independent-minded region, that produced such ground-breaking artists as Salvador Dali, Joan Miró, and served as Pablo Picasso’s home for a number of years, its no wonder Art & Design students are flocking to this wonderful destination. The culture of Barcelona's Art & Design can be found inside and out. Many works of art are housed in their breathtaking museums, such as the Dali Museum, Gaudi Museum and Museu Picasso.

However, many other works of Art & Design can be found by just strolling around the stunning city's landmark buildings, such as CaixaForum, the MACBA, the Fundació Miró and La Pedrera. The breathtaking works of master architect Antoni Gaudí and his modernist contemporaries truly define Barcelona as a center for creative expression.
