CHILDREN’S ART CENTRE
More than two million young people have visited and enjoyed the Gallery’s
exhibitions for children and families since 2000. This year we celebrated
the milestone of 15 years since our first children’s exhibition. Collaboration
with contemporary artists drives much of our programming for children and
families, with more than 170 national and international contemporary artists
developing interactive projects, large-scale installations, online multimedia
activities, workshops and books for children and families.
