View the world through the eyes of Sidney Nolan, make sketches, take photographs then go for a ride.
The Civic Merry Go Round was relocated to Canberra from St Kilda in Melbourne where Nolan grew up and this beloved childhood past-time will be the starting point for a beautiful abstract work of art on canvas.
This workshop is suitable for children aged 6 to 12 years of age. Please bring your own snacks, lunch and drink. Workshop fully supervised and all materials provided.
There will be limited places and contact tracing for this event.
