Ancient Egypt for Kids is a free exhibition inviting children to unlock the mysteries of ancient Egypt through a series of activities exploring the art and culture of this fascinating world.
Coinciding with the Melbourne Winter Masterpieces exhibition Pharaoh at NGV International, this interactive exhibition will captivate young visitors and their families with displays of ancient Egyptian objects from NGV's Collection, including a decorated coffin lid, over 2,500 years old, along with a space filled with gleaming gold walls and floor-to-ceiling hieroglyphs.
The exhibition is designed to evoke the mystery and wonder of ancient Egyptian culture. Children will step into a space to discover a golden funerary head covering and an elaborately decorated coffin illuminated to reveal imagery of gods, goddesses and hieroglyphic inscriptions. Through these objects, the artistry and craftsmanship of ancient Egyptian society comes to life.
