Curious Corner: Families
Overview
Get curious on a dedicated tour for families.
Experience the National Gallery's collection through playful activities and lively discussions led by National Gallery artist educators. Experiment with artmaking processes and materials and develop your own stories as a family.
This program is designed for children aged 5-12 to enjoy with their families. Children must be accompanied by a parent/carer.
