THE BEADING WORKSHOP IS CURRENTLY SOLD OUT, BUT THERE IS STILL LOTS OF AVAILABILITY IN THE SPACESHIP WORKSHOPS.

Join in the fun of Tony Albert’s BEAM ME UP, The Art Of Abduction, in a series of workshops for children and adults.

Those aged 7 and over can participate in a beading workshop led by Tony and his collaborator ENOKi, and take home your very own wearable out-of-this-world adornment. But be quick – spots are limited!

The alien is a common reoccurring symbol within Tony’s practice. Tony uses alien and pop culture iconography as a way of looking at the ‘other’ and promote conversation in understanding difference and stating that all people have a place.

Beam Me Up is an immersive installation which encourages interaction and for people to use their own technologies to engage in fun and playful ways. Tony asks audiences ‘who is the alien, why are they here and what do they want?’.

To ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone, please note that children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian throughout the workshop.
