LOST
Dates Fri 11 Jul – Sun 27 Jul
Open daily 10.00 am – 10.00 pm
Bunjil Place Plaza

This winter, immerse yourself in the magic of Lost — a breathtaking, larger-than-life art installation that transforms nature into an unforgettable experience.

Created by internationally acclaimed Australian artist Amanda Parer, Lost brings endangered botanical species from around the globe to stunning life through towering, illuminated sculptures of flowers and foliage.

It’s awe-inspiring, family-friendly, and best of all — completely free.

Imagine Live!
Thu 17 Jul, 10.00 am (AUSLAN & RP) & 12.00 pm
Theatre

Magical and meaningful, IMAGINE LIVE is a celebration of creativity, friendship and our precious natural world.

With the help of the audience, performers play and sing their way through the pages of Alison Lester’s iconic best-selling book, and quickly discover there is WAY more to these pages than they first thought.

The Owl’s Apprentice
Fri 11 Jul, 10.00 am & 12.00 pm

A lively, funny, interactive show combining shadow puppetry and physical comedy into a gorgeous story about our Australian animals and gaining wisdom.
A young owl named Poot Poot is sent to study at Owl school. He’s not like the other owls: he misses his family, he just wants to go home. He knows the only way he can go home is by gaining “wisdom”, but he doesn’t know what that is yet. 

After the show, learn how to make your own shadow puppets!

Shadow Puppetry Workshop: Playing With Light
Fri 11 Jul 1.00 pm

Come along and explore the world of shadow puppetry with an experienced puppeteer, Jenny Ellis.

This hands-on workshop will give children a range of skills to make their own shows as well as a puppet they can take home.

Participants will imagine and design their own unique puppet characters, then they’re guided through the process of making their puppets and bringing them to life.
