Step into a world of creative chaos where families and children can immerse themselves in free art-making activities inspired by the Queensland Art Gallery | Gallery of Modern Art's (QAGOMA) vibrant exhibition, 'Express Yourself'. This pop-up offers a hands-on experience designed to spark imagination and artistic expression in a fun, welcoming environment.
Children under 5 years are warmly welcomed but must be accompanied by a parent or carer, ensuring a safe and supportive space for the little ones to explore their creativity. No bookings are required, making it easy for families to drop in and enjoy the activities at their convenience.
This event is perfect for parents seeking engaging, educational, and artistic experiences during school holidays that encourage children to express themselves through art.
The pop-up features multiple drop-in activity stations where kids can experiment with various art materials and techniques. These stations are designed to be accessible and enjoyable for a broad age range, fostering creativity and confidence in young artists.
The program aligns with artist Vipoo Srivilasa's current exhibition at QAGOMA Children's Art Centre, bringing key elements of the exhibition directly to the Scenic Rim community. This connection enriches the experience by linking local participation with a major cultural event.
Activities run daily from 10:00 to 15:00 on selected dates, allowing families to plan visits that fit their schedules during the school holidays.
The event is hosted at The Centre Beaudesert, located at 82 Brisbane St, Beaudesert QLD 4285. This central location is easily accessible for families in the Scenic Rim region.
There is ample space for children to move around and engage with the art stations comfortably. The venue is family-friendly and provides a safe environment for children to explore their artistic talents.
