Share in a child’s early art experiences and discover artworks from the NGV together with online sessions designed for children aged 2 – 5 years and their parents or carers.

In this program, young children will be introduced to TIWI, an exhibition that looks at the art and culture of the Tiwi people of Melville and Bathurst Islands. Children will learn about the Tiwi artists’ unique ways of expressing their identity and culture through art. This will be followed by an art making demonstration to inspire children to make art that expresses who they are, what they think and feel using the My Art, My Identity activity sheet.

Facilitated by Stephanie Pohlman, Youth and Families Coordinator and Kayla Clinch, Children’s Programs Administration Assistant, NGV Kids.
