Education Files reflects the history of the Education Department at the Whitechapel Gallery, which was created in 1979. Different directions were taken from the beginning, namely, Community and Youth programs, School-related activities, such as lectures, workshops, talks, and walks, artists in schools, artists in residence, and many more. The collection is now being re-catalogued and updated, so the catalogue is not available now.
There are other, earlier documents on the education activity, which are distributed in other Collections, such as ‘Early Records’ for 1901-1948, ‘Directors Papers’ and ‘Exhibition Files’ for 1948-1979. Some other traces can be even seen in the ‘Trustee files’ and in the Education part of the ‘Photography’ collection.
