Join us for another edition of Curators and Crafts, where curator-led exhibition tours meet hands-on artmaking inspired by the show.
Explore Dream Factory through an engaging tour led by the show’s curatorial team and gain insights into the exhibition’s themes, artists, and multi-media work.
Enhance your visit with a drop-in craft workshop where you’ll design and create your own Chinese rattle drum. Learn about its cultural significance as you explore colours, patterns, and sounds inspired by the vibrancy of Dream Factory. All materials are provided while supplies last, and all ages are welcome.
