Description

Children live in a world not quite built for them and, for a long time, galleries were no exception. No touching. No talking. Just stand and receive.

But, something is changing. Across Australia, galleries are beginning to meet children where they are — not just as visitors, but as artists in their own right.

Tamsin Cull, head of public engagement at QAGOMA and Lilly Blue, head of learning and creativity research at AGWA, talk about children's creativity, and how galleries are being transformed by it.
