Design your own curious world - a playful architecture workshop inspired by the exciting new exhibition, The Curious World of Pamela Allen
About this Event

Join us for a hands-on, imagination-fuelled workshop for children that explores architectural ideas, presented in partnership with the NSW Architects Registration Board. Come on a guided tour of the new exhibition, The Curious World of Pamela Allen and draw inspiration from her whimsical worlds to create your own.

Led by registered architects, you will learn new ways of thinking and making - playing with scale, shapes, structures, movement and storytelling to design and build your own fantastical mini-worlds. Using art materials and found objects, you can create tunnels, arches, towers, layers, folds and more. Anything is possible in your curious world!

Perfect for inquisitive creators aged 8–12, this workshop challenges you to explore architectural design in playful and unexpected ways.

All materials will be supplied. Children must be accompanied by a parent or carer. Please bring a packed lunch.
