Discussion Series
In this expansive and educational series of three in-depth talks and conversational gallery tours, art educator Anne Pickard-Vaandering places current art exhibitions in context with wider art histories. Attend one or attend all three for an even broader understanding. These mini art history sessions will leave participants with a better appreciation of current exhibitions, as well as the historical and cultural movements and societal change seen through an art historical lens.
Discussion 1 - February 2: Feminisms through Art
Discussion 2 - March 1: Blood and Bodies: Religion and Science through Art
Discussion 3- April 5: Abstraction through Art

Events & Programs
Taking inspiration from Toby Rabinowitz’s exhibition, A World Within A World, visitors can choose an animal silhouette provided by us and decorate it with brightly-coloured patterns using various shapes and materials.
Toby’s artwork is full of bright, imagined worlds with magical creatures and friends playing together. She says her work is for kids and happy adults – make sure you stop in to look for yourself in the art gallery on level 4.
What magical creature will you create?
