About
For 'The 8th Asia Pacific Triennial of Contemporary Art' (APT8), the Queensland Art Gallery │ Gallery of Modern Art Children's Art Centre will present 'APT8 Kids' (21 November 2014 – 10 April 2106). 'APT8 Kids' will include a number of interactive artist projects exploring exhibition themes from APT8, including the transformation of everyday objects, performance and the body in art.
APT8 Kids on Tour will provide children and families throughout Queensland with the opportunity to enjoy 'APT8 Kids' at their local venue, enabling children to experience and explore contemporary art from Australia, Asia and the Pacific through a range of drawing, hands‑on and multimedia activities.
Venues will also be provided with a selection of activities from the Children's Art Centre publication Draw, Make, Create: APT8 Kids, that were created in collaboration with a number of exhibiting APT8 artists in association with the 'APT8 Kids' exhibition. APT8 Kids on Tour is offered as a free program to regional Queensland communities through the Gallery's Regional Services department, thanks to generous support from the Tim Fairfax Family Foundation.
