Proud of research findings
The Hermitage for Children hired research consultancy Bain & Company to conduct a study on the social impact of the art education programme on children. This study involved over 300 interviews with pupils from the school and talent programmes, parents, teachers, and various experts. It clearly identified an increase in the pupils’ knowledge of art history and in their creative abilities. Ninety per cent of participants indicated that they would like to visit a museum again and over fifty per cent of parents and children have witnessed a clear increase in self-confidence. The study found that the Hermitage for Children is the most comprehensive education programme of any museum in the Netherlands.
We are very proud of that.
