Side by Wonder
Children in Conversation with Art
Please join us at the Official Opening of Side by Wonder: Children in Conversation with Art
Friday, 30 January 2026, 4:30pm - 6.00pm
In this exhibition, seven young artists from Warwick Art Gallery’s weekly children’s art class respond to six treasured works from our art collection. Each child has created an artwork inspired by a painting from the collection, reflecting their own ideas, emotions, and imagination. Displayed side by side, these paired works invite viewers to see familiar art through fresh eyes — celebrating creativity, curiosity, and the wonder of artistic conversation across generations.
Featuring paintings from the Southern Downs Regional Council collection
Jon De Graff - Last Light
Allyson Reynolds - Flock II
Paul de Moulin - Bee Connected
