Spark the imagination, generate new ideas, and share thoughts in these lively online sessions about art for children aged 3 – 5 years and their parents and carers. In each session, children discover works of art from the NGV Collection and watch a demonstration of an art-making activity that can be made at home or school using everyday materials.

This activity is suitable to join from home, kindergarten or playgroup. Groups are welcome to attend. Participation in the program’s chat function is encouraged. Attendees’ microphones and cameras will be turned off.

Under 5s | Furry Friends
Wet noses and fluffy paws at the ready! Prowl through NGV Australia online and explore some favourite artworks featuring animals in this exciting Under 5s program. Discover how animals have inspired artists and their creations, such as artworks by Jeff Koons and Melbourne-based artist Troy Emery.

This presentation will be followed by a demonstration of a creative-making activity that children can try at home. Using the provided activity sheet, children can dream up and design their own furry friend to keep them company.
