School's back
You may have noticed this week that traffic is bad again – that means term two has begun! As usual we have a busy education programme planned. Since the opening of Burster Flipper Wobbler Dripper Spinner Stacker Shaker Maker, school groups have been taking guided tours and lessons at ArtBox. Below is a review the exhibition by local home schooler Tierney Reardon.
