About this activity

Round off the school holidays in style with free roving art-making sessions at the Art Gallery of NSW on Sunday 19 April. Gallery educators rove through the galleries with art-making carts, stopping to engage kids and families in creative activities inspired by artworks right there in front of them.

It is a brilliant way to visit the gallery — instead of just looking, kids respond to what they see by making something themselves. Sessions pop up in different galleries throughout the day, so the best approach is simply to explore and join in when you spot an educator.

Families can look forward to:

  • Free drop-in art-making — no bookings, no scheduled times, just join in
  • Gallery educators roving through the collection with materials carts
  • Creative activities inspired by works on display across the gallery
  • Access to the full Art Gallery of NSW collection for free
  • The Domain parkland right outside for a picnic lunch
  • One of Sydney's most accessible cultural institutions — free general entry always
