ArtPark

September 23rd 2010 23:42
Original Creative Writing: Hyde Park
Hyde Park will be transformed into an interactive art exhibition featuring a giant outdoor movie screen, a pop up gallery, a large Rabbit installation, craft workshops, roving bands and guided tours.


Hyde Park will get its art makeover from September 24-26 as part of Art & About Sydney 2010 ArtPark.

Appealing to the inner artist in all of us, ArtPark is part of the City of Sydney's ninth annual public art festival Art & About Sydney 2010, which brings four weeks of free, fun and engaging exhibitions, installations and performances.
