Young people offer a fresh perspective and provide their point of view on collaboration.
Join our rookie art guides as they share their commentary on our current exhibition Thinking together: Exchanges with the natural world.
Supported by Bundanon’s Learning team, this playful event will offer audiences and participants the chance to see children’s ideas given a public platform.
We are currently looking for participants for this event aged 8-12 years. Please register your interest in becoming an Art Guide.
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.
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 4 and Sunday 18 May.

Participants will attend a free, interactive workshop with children’s book author and public speaker Nathan Luff (The Nerd Herd and Family Disasters series) two weeks prior to the event.
