Family Day

Sunday 1 October, 11am-3pm

Come to City Gallery Wellington for experiences and encounters. From 11am-3pm there will be a range of activities and pop-ups happening throughout the Gallery for you to discover.  

Join us for a day of fun and creativity that the whole whānau can get in on.  


Bloom (Drop in): Is it a flower? Is it a house? Is it a space station? Help us bring Bloom to life using bright pink construction pieces to connect, construct, and deconstruct whole new worlds. Imagine and collaborate as a family. 

Make a House (Drop in): Everyone knows that Wellington is the coolest little capital. Help us build a creative community by decorating your own house. Using our models, turn a house into a work of art with colour, pattern and more. 

Zine Making (Drop in): Home is where the art is. Work with us to make a Zine all about your home and what makes it special to you and your family.  

Story time 11.30am & 1pm: Art and imagination come together in these pop-up story times. Get comfortable and settle in as Wellington City Libraries offers a range of stories to delight and inspire.  

Art Encounter Jr 12pm & 2pm: Join one of our talented Gallery Guides as we explore an artwork and spark conversation. Spend time with us to take a slower look and reflect on the wonderful artworks and exhibitions we have on offer.
