It’s time to reimagine, remake, reinterpret! 'imagine...' is a fresh, hands-on program that invites visitors of all ages to slow down, look closely, and view the gallery’s collection in a whole new way, by making it your own.
Housed in the Gallery’s interactive art space, with all materials provided, participants are encouraged to respond to the collection through their own creative making. Whether it’s reimagining a familiar painting, remaking a detail in a different form, or reinterpreting an artwork with a personal twist, imagine... offers space to experiment, reflect, and create.
It’s the perfect way to explore an artist’s ideas and to stimulate your imagination.
