MK Gallery Tour of Wayfinder for Kids

Calling all children (Year 1 and over)! Would you like your own personal tour of MK Gallery’s current exhibition, Larry Achiampong: Wayfinder this December?

On Wednesday 28 December 2022 (11am & 2pm) join Tara Sheldon, the Gallery's Producer of Public Programming for Young People and Children, on her interactive tour. Together you will discover Larry’s ideas behind his exhibition, including why he’s included so many computer games and who are those characters in fancy gear and helmets suspended from the ceilings. Tara will also share some behind-the-scenes nuggets with the children about what it takes to stage an exhibition like Larry’s at MK Gallery.

Tara said: ‘Watching the children’s reactions to Wayfinder has been one of the best parts of the exhibition – it ignites their imagination. Also, we have some great dressing up outfits, designed and produced by MK College fashion and textiles students. Children visiting the show have loved transforming themselves into a Relic Traveller from Wayfinder.

‘Christmas can be hectic for families so this tour could provide a breather for everyone. The children can join me in the galleries exploring the exhibition and gaming room, while parents can enjoy an hour in our café – there’s even some beanbags and computer games in there too.’

Spaces are limited. Tickets are *Pay What You Can, but booking is essential www.mkgallery.org

The exhibition is open until 15 January 2023. It will be the last opportunity to visit it in the south of England before it travels north to BALTIC in Gateshead.

*Pay What You Can Scheme

As a registered charity, we rely upon the generosity of individuals, businesses, trusts and foundations. Your support, at any level, enables us to keep providing high quality arts activities and a programme for all to enjoy.

We’re delighted to introduce our new Pay What You Can scheme. We believe passionately in the access of art and culture for everyone, and that no one should be excluded because of their financial circumstances, particularly now, when so many are struggling.

We know that ticket price is a barrier for some, and the Pay What You Can scheme offers families who can afford to pay the recommended price or more the chance to support others who can’t. We have a range of ticket options for people to choose, from free entry to £5 per person.
