Remix Committee: We Need You!

Remix Committee: We Need You!

We are looking for a small group of passionate taste-makers to join our ReMix Committee. Come and ensure YOUR voice is represented at Christchurch Art Gallery by working with our team to plan an event (and other activities) that is all about, and for, young people. We don’t want to tell you what you might like, we want you to tell us! You pick the theme, you pick the bands, you pick the performers, you pick the film, you pick the speakers.

These are just some of the creations made with our Imagination Playground over the last week. It's been a big hit with children this KidsFest. There is no end to the amazing structures and imaginary worlds created.
