Throw on Orion’s Belt and become a star.
🎸 Live Performances
Stay tuned for the lineup!
⚙️ Artist Workshop with James Dodd
Take a spin on the drawing machine. Watch artworks come alive through machinery and discover what creations you can make.
✏️ Artist Workshop with Nicolas Ottavio Saccardo
Push the limits of your drawing skills. Try touch-centred drawing by drawing through touch rather than observation with covered objects.
🎤 Karaoke
Select a track and sing your heart out at the karaoke station.
🔎 Art Bingo
Use the Art Bingo cards to seek, search and spot works of art around the gallery. Follow the prompts created by our Neo Ambassadors as your way in to notice something new.
