A kaleidoscope of colour and ideas, What is Different? is a celebration of the uninhibited creativity of our young people in the face of crisis.

When schools closed during Queensland’s lockdown life became very different for everyone, especially for young people. Children were at home more than usual, routines were different, playdates were cancelled and lessons moved from the classroom to the home. As the coronavirus pandemic began to unfold, the Gallery of Children’s Art (GoCA) asked children across Queensland: “what is different?”. From kindergartens to primary schools, this question prompted students to reflect and respond to their changing global, local and personal situations through art, helping them to express their ideas and emotions.

Full of innovation, humour and heart, this exhibition is one to put on your to-see list. Head to the Museum of Brisbane website to learn more.
