Maribyrnong and Hobsons Bay children are encouraged to bring out their creative side as part of the NGV Kids on Tour program.
The tour is taking place in galleries, libraries, paediatric hospitals, neighbourhood houses, migrant resource centres and community organisations in regional, suburban and metropolitan areas across the state.
Creative Industries Minister Steve Dimopoulos said the program will add to the creativity on show across Victoria.
“This school holidays we’re delivering more free activities to families across the state, with the largest ever Kids on Tour program offering parents and kids memorable moments led by the world-class team at the NGV,” he said.
“The free NGV Kids on Tour program is one of the ways we are ensuring that all Victorians have the chance to unleash their inner artist and enjoy the best creative experiences close to home.”
NGV director Tony Allwood AM said the program is nearing its 10-year anniversary.
“The Kids on Tour Program has demonstrated the NGV’s commitment to providing Victorians of all ages with the opportunity to engage with art and design from around the world,” he said.
This year’s tour celebrates the theme ‘Let’s Make Art’, offering captivating and creative activities for kids and their families.
The program also offers dedicated workshops for teens to help them hone their skills and build their portfolios, with leading artists sharing their expertise and experience with Victoria’s budding creatives.
