The Making Place | Family Day Edition

Join us for a special Family Day edition of The Making Place!

Get creative during your visit to the Gallery. Head upstairs to Room 4East on the 4th Floor between 11 AM and 4 PM to explore your artistic side and make your own work inspired by the art on display.

Activities are led by the Gallery’s knowledgeable Art Educators, but there is no formal instruction. Drop in to create and connect!

This special edition of The Making Place will celebrate Family Day. Families will be able to experiment with watercolour, drawing and button-making activities.
