8. Art Gallery Creative Space

The Creative Space features a modern design with concrete floors and white walls. It can be accessed either through Gallery 1 or from the outdoor courtyard area via sliding glass doors. Large windows allow natural light into the room, and the doors provide direct connection to the outdoor space.

The room includes workshop tables and chairs for creative activities. There are activity instructions and materials on the tables for self-guided creative activities. The Creative Space has a temporary design that changes regularly, so the wall colours, layout and activities in the space can change.

This space is often used for workshops and programs involving children or school groups, and activity levels may vary depending on scheduled events. Visitors may hear instructions from a teacher or gallery representative, and there may be mild smells from materials such as clay or glue used during activities. When there are scheduled workshops running in the Creative Space, it is closed to other visitors and an activity is often available in the gallery foyer instead.
