Plans For The Planet: Olaf Breuning For Kids

  • Free
  • Family and kids

Plans for The Planet: Olaf Breuning for Kids is an exclusive NGV exhibition created by Swiss contemporary artist Olaf Breuning that invites children and families to explore the natural environment and consider their relationship to the world.

Championing young voices and a love of the natural world, children can engage with and problem-solve some of today’s environmental issues such as deforestation, pollution and loss of habitat for wildlife, while expressing their hopes for a better planet. Using a specially-designed swipe card collected at the exhibition entrance, kids can go on their own adventure activating animations and multimedia activities to help forest animals save their forest home, make a funny self-portrait and type up their solutions to issues and share their plans for the planet for everyone to see.

This free exhibition is suitable for children of all ages, school groups and playgroups.
