School holidays: Colour Your World

Join us these school holidays for a colourful celebration of creativity, self-expression and imagination. 

From discovering hidden shapes around the Museum to meditative art practices, printing your own statement clothing and sewing colourful happy flags, there’s something for curious and creative minds of all ages.

Be inspired by Costarella and explore different ways to express yourself through art, making, colour and hands-on activities.
