Fill your morning or afternoon with art! Our workshop & tours run from 9:30am to 11:30am OR 12:30pm to 2:30pm. This program offers a choice of hands on workshop of your choice and a self guided or guided tour.
Bring a Lunch
Did you know that Glenhyrst is so much more than just the Gallery? We have 2 other buildings on the property, a variety of outdoor sculptures, 16 acres of beautiful grounds, and the Grand River in our backyard.
Depending on the weather, consider joining us for an outdoor picnic. You and your students may enjoy a picnic lunch anywhere on the grounds or lower gardens. Consider a nature walk, and venture to the Grand River, which is located right behind our Main Gallery.
Stay a while
Glenhyrst Art Gallery of Brant has over 9 different outdoor sculptures on our 16 acres of land. Enjoy a walk-about around the gallery and let our Outdoor Sculpture Brochure help you out.
Enjoy the History!
The Cockshutt family was one of the most powerful and influential families in Brantford. A rich history fills the home and grounds. Discover more about Edmund Cockshutt and Glenhyrst with our downloadable history brochure. Walking the grounds, and imagining the times of the past with your new knowledge can help us further explore the history and our modern culture.
