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

Young ones can create their own wearable spaceships, bringing to life the aliens that are visiting Melbourne over RISING.

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?’.

For children aged 5+. To ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone, please note that children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian throughout the workshop.
