SPRING school holidays bring a vibrant mix of FREE exhibitions, family activities and creative experiences to Yarrila Arts and Museum (YAM).
Drop into YAM for free art-making every day inspired by the current exhibitions, with no bookings required.
Pick up a free kids’ guide, explore the interactive exhibition Yaamanga (around here) and uncover stories from the Coffs Coast’s past, then discover a fantastic range of contemporary art and photography.
Don’t miss Family Day at YAM on Saturday 10 October, from 10.30am to 1pm, featuring FREE hands-on creativity and discovery for all ages.
Plus, the first 50 visitors will receive a free YAM bag.
Join artist Emma Louise Davies to create playful sports-inspired wearable sculptures using colourful paper, metallic card and markers.
Design a headband, cuff, badge or medal, imagine the sport you would compete in, then strike a pose in our green-screen photo studio to capture your wild invention.
Alongside the family fun, discover Small Worlds by Coffs Coast painter Terri Butterworth and three compelling contemporary photography exhibitions from the Museum of Australian Photography (MAPh).
Murray Fredericks: The Salt Lake captures the vast beauty of Kati Thanda-Lake Eyre through dreamlike photographs of light, sky and reflection.
Petrina Hicks: Snakes and Mirrors presents striking images that explore the relationship between animals, beauty and the natural world.
In Bad Sports, The Huxleys use spectacular costumes, humour and performance to celebrate creativity, individuality and self-expression.
Open every day except Mondays, YAM is your go-to destination in Coffs Harbour for FREE art, history and creativity!
