    DescriptionEvery weekend, art galleries are filled with children. Some are super excited, whilst others look bored. Their parents or guardians might be enjoying the art on display but what do the children get out of visiting a gallery? Professor Jane Murray explains how immersing children in art from an early age can be beneficial to their overall development.
