It is a straightforward process that is both fun and engaging. In this blog, we will guide you on how to create a virtual art gallery with Google Slides. Let’s get started.
Step 1: Set Up your Google Slides
First, you need to create your workspace. Open Google Slides and create a new presentation. Delete any text boxes on the first slide to start with a blank canvas. Set the background to any desirable color by clicking on Background at the top of the page.
Step 2: Design the Gallery Room
Now let’s add some walls to our gallery. You can do this by going to the menu and click Insert > Shape > Shapes and then select a rectangle. Draw rectangles to resemble the walls of your gallery. You can adjust the color and border of the rectangles as per your choice.
Step 3: Adding Your Artwork
After setting up your room, it’s time to add some artwork to the walls. To insert your artwork, go to Insert > Image > Upload from computer if you have the file on your computer. If the file is on the internet, use Insert > Image > By URL. Resize the image according to your taste and place it on your walls.
Step 4: Creating Multiple Rooms
If you want to create an extended gallery with multiple rooms, you can duplicate the slide you already created and then modify it by changing the art pieces. To duplicate a slide, you can right-click on the slide in the left panel and then select Duplicate slide.
Step 5: Adding Navigation Buttons
To add an element of interactivity, you can add navigation buttons to your gallery. This way, viewers can click on the buttons to navigate through different rooms. Insert shapes to act as buttons. Then, add a hyperlink to these shapes by right-clicking on the shape > Link > Slides in this presentation and then choose the slide number.
Step 6: Presenting Your Gallery
Once your gallery is set, you can present it to viewers. Just click on Present at the top right corner of the page. Your viewers can now tour your gallery by clicking on the navigation buttons.
And voilà! You have successfully created your virtual art gallery in Google Slides. It is a fantastic way to bring creativity and interactivity together. So let your imagination run wild and create your unique virtual art gallery. Happy creating!
