Join us during the school holidays to introduce your child to the strange and beautiful sea creatures featured in the 20 Years of Australian Geographic Nature Photographer of the Year exhibition.

This exhibition showcases remarkable flora, fauna, and landscapes, including stunning underwater imagery.

After touring the exhibition, young artists will get hands-on and paint their own powerful image of underwater mystery and beauty. They will learn to apply artistic techniques such as perspective and contrast to bring their creations to life.

This school holiday program is suitable for school-aged students from 7 to 12 years old. Please note that all children must be accompanied by an adult.

National Archives is committed to the Commonwealth Child Safe Framework, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone.

20 Years of the Australian Geographic Nature Photographer of the Year is a South Australian Museum exhibition supported by Australian Geographic and Dr Stuart Miller AM.
