Hive Festival – Art, Play and Imagination

Have you ever wanted to throw the doors open to pure imagination? An intersection of art and play, with surprise, creativity, and chaos. Well we may have found the perfect space for you.
From story times to singalongs and art workshops to discos, the Art Gallery of New South Wales bursts into life this summer with the return of the much-awaited Hive Festival. This free, fun-filled festival is a celebration of the power of play for all ages.
Victoria Collings, the family programs manager at the Art Gallery of NSW spoke with Rupert all about the festival and the power of play.
