Art Starters

Explore a current QAGOMA exhibition with your baby in a relaxed, inclusive environment. While our facilitator shares the stories behind selected artworks, your baby will enjoy songs, games, and visual stimulation. Each tour concludes with a tummy-time session during which your baby can play with a variety of sensory objects.

The autumn 2024 program (March-May) explores selected artworks from the 'Seeds and Sovereignty' exhibition at the Gallery of Modern Art (GOMA).

We offer two Art Starters programs per year commencing in autumn and spring. Please note that tour content is repeated across all dates in a season.

Sessions are scheduled on selected Thursdays at 10:15am and 11:30am and run for approximately 45 minutes.
