Bugs Are Us

Event Partner Tate Liverpool
Admission -2
Start Time 10:00 AM
End Time 10:00 AM

You'll be buzzing with excitement with our bug-themed activities in our Learning Space this October half term! From dragonflies to beetles, take inspiration from the creepy crawlies in Tate’s collection to construct multi-coloured neon replicas of your favourite bugs. Use the materials from our pick 'n' mix recycled craft box to make a 3D model of your bug.

Check out John Hoskin's Black Beetle, Louise Bourgeois' Spider, Mark Wallinger's King Edward and the Colorado Beetle, Yinka Shonibare's Grain Weevil and Andy Warhol's Happy Butterfly Day for inspiration!

Our Learning Space is open every day for visiting families- a space to relax and create with art games, colouring-in, books, toys and more!

Share your experience with us on social media using @tateliverpool and #TLfamilies.
