The May edition of our Disability Led Family Days is curated by artist, facilitator, and advocate Amy Claire Mills and sees Amy and a group of artists and contemporaries take over White Bay Power Station with a series of works, including an interactive installation, a participatory workshop, and a performance including:

  • Soft Sculptural Picnic – Completely transforming the White Bay Program Space, Amy Claire Mills invites audiences into a world of sensory exploration, creativity, and mindfulness with a soft sculptural picnic installation. Through a combination of textures, colours, and forms (imagine oversized flowers, fruits, sandwiches, sweet treats, and more), this immersive and interactive experience invites tactile and visual engagement, creating a safe and comforting space for audiences to embrace and explore through sensory play.

  • Textile Workshop – Led by artist EmmaRani Hodges, children, and families will be able to drop into a textile workshop/craft station where will be given a piece of fabric and then told to recall a person, place, object, memory, or action that makes them feel safe. They can then embroider, collage, paint, or draw on their fabric, which will then be sewn into a quilt that grows as a communal artwork throughout the day, exploring our essential human needs and pursuit of comfort.

  • Roving Performance – Dressed in joyous costumes matching the soft sculptural installation in the Program Space, artists Amy Claire Mills, EmmaRani Hodges and Bedelia Lowren?ev will together perform a lively movement piece that travels through the architecture of White Bay culminating on the Boiler House Indoor Stage.
