About

Artists have hidden many clues in the Gallery's paintings to encourage us to look closer into their fantastic worlds. It's incredible how many details you can discover just by exploring with your eyes as you search for sounds and noise in the hills and across the sea. 

During the activity, an educator will assist you in drawing different sounds through mark-making and help you create your own listening chart to interpret other paintings in the collection.
