Play with Art
Levels K–2

Mon–Fri, 10am, 11.30am, 1 pm & 2.30pm
NGV International & The Ian Potter Centre: NGV Australia

Nurture early learner’s curiosity, creativity and wellbeing through a playful exploration of art at the NGV. This educator-led program provides opportunities for movement, sensory experiences, imaginative responses, and collaborative activities inspired by art. The program supports social and emotional learning by encouraging children to notice their own feelings, communicate with others, and develop confidence in the gallery environment.

Students will

  • Explore works of art through play, movement, imagination and sensory experiences
  • Recognise and express feelings, ideas and personal responses to works of art
  • Practise social and emotional skills including collaboration, empathy, communication and listening

This program supports the Victorian Early Years Learning and Development Framework (VEYLDF) and connects with Victorian Curriculum 2.0 Visual Arts and Personal and Social Capability learning from Foundation to Level 2.

Pace of program and number of artworks visited will vary to suit each group.

Duration: 1 hour
Cost: $11 per student
