Workshop "Frida: The Making of an Icon" - Saturday 28th November 2026 at 10am
On the occasion of the Tate Modern exhibition Frida: The Making of an Icon, join us for a unique and interactive workshop that explores the artist's life and enduring legacy. Frida Kahlo was a revolutionary artist and a global phenomenon whose works reveal her 'many selves': the dedicated wife, the intellectual, the political activist, and the modern artist.
In this classroom-based session, you will not just learn about her famous self-portraits—you will immerse yourself in the stories and symbols that define her work. Through fun and engaging activities, we will discover the context behind her paintings, discuss the key themes of identity and cultural iconography, and bring the fierce spirit of Frida to life. This is the perfect way to prepare for your visit, ensuring you appreciate every detail of this extraordinary show.
This 2-hour workshop in Spanish will be held in our classrooms in Clapham (4 Scout Lane, SW4 0LA), a short walk from Clapham Common tube station. The session will be led by an art historian and qualified Spanish language teacher. The level is tailored for students with at least an A2 level of Spanish (equivalent to our Continuacion courses).
