Child-friendly programmes include:
A Live Doodling Activation
Let’s explore the future of play this National Day as we celebrate what unites us. Visitors are encouraged to imagine tomorrow’s playground, and how it continues to bring us together. These scenarios will be drawn by the doodlers on to the canvas.
