The Museum of Contemporary Art is taking workshops to young people in regional areas in 2022 as a program partner for the Office for Regional Youth’s Holiday Break NSW Regional Program. The only Visual Arts organisation to be part of this important initiative, these workshops give young people throughout regional NSW the opportunity to connect with their creativity and with contemporary art.

These workshops will guide young people through a series of activities that encourage play, experimentation, reflection, and expression. The participants will use simple art materials and everyday objects to practice different mediums and methods of creation. The program is open to young people aged 12-20 years.
