HEN @ TarraWarra Museum of Art (5y-12y, Healesville)

Join us for a guided art tour and studio workshop at the beautifully situated TarraWarra Museum of Art.

Families will join either the Junior Primary (aimed at 5y-8y) or Senior Primary (aimed at 9y-12y) group, & will participate in two activities:

• A guided tour of the museum's current exhibition, Breathing Helps by Rose Nolan, as well as a viewing of the visible art storage of more than 300 artworks on 64 art screens 
• A studio workshop, where kids will be encouraged to create their own two-colour 3 dimensional collage, using line experimentation & pre-cut flowers, as inspired by the exhibition, & combining these individual works into a collaborative piece
