After-School Art at Bendigo Art Gallery
Bendigo Art Gallery is continuing its free After-School Art program this term with a general program and a First Nations-inspired program running on alternate weeks each Thursday throughout the term. These sessions are for young people aged between 10 to 18 years and run from3:45pm to 4:45pm. Activities and materials change throughout the term, and sessions are not cumulative, meaning families can book as a one-off or for the entire term!
