Sunday 19 July from 10am to 1pm

On this Family Sunday we are wandering history’s timeline to explore 200 years of the State Library. You’ll find craft and drawing activities inspired by the amazing collections we’ve been acquiring for 200 years. We’ll also challenge you to use your imagination and design a library of the future.

Pick up a 200 trail card for kids to guide you on an expedition around the Library.

You can also visit The Curious World of Pamela Allen exhibition, or relax with a book in the Children’s Library.

Suitable for the whole family.

Our Family Sunday events occur on the third Sunday of every month. Click here to view all our upcoming events for kids and families at the Library.
