On the Move
Planes, trains and automobiles – all manner of transport is the theme of On the Move, a new interactive children's exhibition at the Ipswich Art Gallery.
On the Move, a new family friendly exhibition that explores transport in all its forms, opened in the Children's Gallery at the Ipswich Art Gallery on 27 February 2021. Created by Sydney Living Museums in collaboration with illustrator James Gulliver Hancock, On the Move takes visitors on a journey around Australia, discovering fascinating facts about different modes of transport and vehicles along the way. Designed especially for children and families, On the Move is a highly engaging exhibition that offers hands-on discovery of incredible journeys, unique inventions, amazing vehicles and intrepid explorers across the county.
Discover how transportation works in busy cities and how fuel choices you make can have a positive impact on the environment. See how transport modes have evolved over time – the trials, the failures and the successes. Develop your fantasy trip, fuel up at the servo, craft your dream machine and build a vehicle for the future from Lego® and test it on a futuristic city track.
It will be in the gallery until July 18.
