About
Open your mind and step into the world of the surreal!
Queenslanders were invited to participate in Surrealism for Kids on Tour', a program of activities and interactive animated games inspired by games played by the surrealists. The on tour program was held throughout regional Queensland from Saturday 17 September to Sunday 25 September 2011 as part of the Children Art Centre's, Surrealism for Kids.
Popular parlour games involving chance, word play and picture-making were rediscovered by the surrealists, providing creative and playful ways to make art and unlock the imagination. Children and families will be able to engage with the surrealist artists through multimedia, drawing and making activities, capture their own surrealist vision of the world, and discover how some of the most powerful and imaginative art of the 20th century was created.
