Ready to build, battle and unleash your inner inventor? In partnership with Muswellbrook STEM Innovation Lab, this hands-on school holiday workshop combines STEM, art and a little bit of fantasy. Working in small teams, participants will construct their own catapult, build a castle or village from repurposed piano parts, and face off against opposing teams in an epic battle to defeat the Hobbit’s dragon, Smaug. Expect creativity, problem-solving, teamwork and plenty of fun along the way!

Suitable for ages 10-14 years.

Morning tea and lunch will be provided.

Parents and guardians are welcome to stay and join in.

This workshop is part of Arts Upper Hunter’s Death Cycle of a Found Piano project, presented through its Visuaural program.

The Visuaural program is made possible by Arts Upper Hunter in partnership with Muswellbrook Regional Arts Centre and the Hunter Regional Conservatorium, with the assistance of the Australian Government Regional Arts Fund, which supports the arts in regional and remote Australia.
