Looking for a FREE activity in Melbourne these school holidays? Head to the Children’s Gallery at NGV International where Children’s Play: Ragnar Kjartansson invites kids to step into a colourful world of imagination, creativity and theatre.
Inspired by a theatrical feast, this interactive exhibition encourages children to become actors, storytellers and creators. Dress up in costumes, step onto the stage, create your own adventure and let your imagination run wild.
Young artists can collect a sketchbook and draw what catches their eye throughout the exhibition, while little bakers will love building giant cake sculptures by stacking colourful cushions into imaginative dessert creations.
Designed for all ages, the exhibition celebrates creativity through drawing, storytelling, performance and hands-on play, making it a wonderful experience for families.
Best of all, entry is completely FREE.
