Kids dive into future-dreaming design, as the pavilion opens wide for play
Young minds always come up with the most maverick designs. This interactive workshop, for ages 3 to 10, is all about puzzling through fun design challenges using felt shapes. Run by the not-for-profit architecture team at Open House Melbourne, the focus is on the tactile and the sensory. They’ll supply all the materials and its drop-in style. So, you can join in when it suits, and experiment building gardens and playgrounds inspired by MPavilion’s park setting.
Thinking of joining? Letting us know your arrival time helps us plan capacity. Bookings for workshop participants and their parents or guardians are recommended.
