Young people offer a fresh perspective and provide their point of view on exhibition The Hidden Line: Art of the Boyd Women.
Join our rookie art guides at this playful event that offer audiences and participants the chance to see children’s ideas given a public platform.
Call Out: Become an Art Guide
Is your 8-12 year old an artist? A storyteller? Do they have big ideas to share with the world?
Bundanon is looking for children to become honorary art guides for a day to participate in the Art Tours by Kids event.
Register your interest here. Expressions of interest close on Friday 12 December. Families will be notified by Wednesday 17 December.
About the program
Over two days, children will develop ideas in response to the current exhibition, practice their public speaking skills, and deliver their insights and commentary to audiences at Bundanon. Participation is free and requires children and their carers to be at Bundanon on Sunday 11 and Sunday 18 January.
Workshop: Public speaking & telling a good story

Participants will attend a free, interactive workshop one week prior to the event led by children’s author Sue Whiting.

Parents and carers are asked to stay for the duration of this workshop.
