About

Enjoy creative play, where you can explore our paintings through shape and mirrors, reflection, drawings and sparkling gold. Encouraging problem-solving and collaboration, we invite families to work together and create new stories about gold.

This holiday, help us test new ideas and materials as part of an ongoing project with artists, children and community groups. These collaborations will shape new resources and activities for families in our new Centre for Creative Learning.
