Presented with Melbourne Museum as part of Playbound Festival
Inside Out is a place to get creative with others and let your imagination roaaaaaar.
There will be all sorts of dynamic dino materials on hand for you to create artwork or build a play space together.
Explore a different idea and activity each time you visit; make a dinosaur sculpture out of cushions or felt; then turn it into a fabulous home for your fossils. Draw your favourite dinosaur's food or wrap and weave a nest for them using ribbon and rope.
Come face-to-face with a Tarbosaurus and meet a baby Triceratops and learn all about their lives. Listen to music and cast dinosaur shadows as you play or have a prehistoric tea party. Anything is possible!
If we are at capacity you may need to wait.
We are unable to accommodate facilitated/school holiday groups in this event.
The event space will be dimly lit.
