INSPIRED BY NATURE: A Children’s Art Exhibition by Mid Street Lab
OPEN CALL FOR LITTLE WILD THINGS!
What’s happening
Calling all curious kids aged 6–12!
Are you wild about nature? Do you love to draw, paint, build, and create?
We’d love YOU to be part of our special children’s exhibition this September:
INSPIRED BY NATURE
Saturday 6 – Saturday 20 September 2025
Mid Street Lab, Kemptown
From tiny bugs to big skies, crashing waves to whispering trees—nature is full of magic, and we want to see how you see it!
We encourage all expressions of visual art in response to theme. Nature is YOU!
WHAT TO DO:
Make up to 2 pieces of art inspired by nature in any way you like!
- Think about:
- Did I explore the theme in a fun or thoughtful way?
- Is it original and creative?
- Is my artwork finished and ready to be shared?
- Write a short sentence (or more!) about your piece to tell us your thoughts and story.
All entries will be reviewed, but please note not every piece will be selected for the final show.
SUMMER ART WORKSHOPS (Optional!)
Want to get inspired and make your piece with us?
Join our Saturday workshops this summer with Kinga & Asia! We’ll explore the beauty, power, and imagination of nature through hands-on art-making. You’ll use natural materials, learn cool techniques, and create beautiful things
