Inspired by Sidney Nolan’s magnificent lyrebird, this hands-on workshop invites kids to design and make their very own wearable animal mask using cardboard and a mix of fun, recycled materials.

Whether it’s a soaring bird, a curious critter, or an imaginative creature, kids will learn how to bring their ideas to life using everyday items and reclaimed materials. It’s a playful, eco-friendly adventure in creativity—perfect for young makers who love to invent, construct, and get a little bit wild!
