NERAM Culture Club goes out of this world this weekend

NERAM Culture club is holding their first big event for this year on Saturday afternoon, a family friendly sci-fi event “Galaxy Experimentia”.

NERAM Culture Club committee is made up of a small group of volunteers providing a safe creative space for the community. They hold two events annually, this year the first being this Saturday’s family friendly โ€œGalaxy Experimentaโ€, and the second is an Adults Holloween evening in October. There are also open studio nights hosted by committee members in the Packsaddle Studio the 1st Wednesday of the month – March to November.

Membership of the NERAM Culture Club is only $35 per year and gets you 10% off workshops (this can be used on childrenโ€™s classes) and the museum shop, in addition to the great events you can be part of.

Have you seenย Experimenta Life Formsย yet? The exhibitionย features a diversity of artforms including robotics, bio-art, screen-based works, installations, participatory and generative art and explores some big questions about our present and futureโ€ฆ and it seems like the perfect inspiration for some sci-fi fun for all the kids (including the big kids).

So get ready to live your best sci-fi fantasy โ€“ we are talking dress ups (sci-fi, fantasy, steam punk, neon techno monstersโ€ฆ we donโ€™t want to limit your imagination).

  • 4.00pm โ€“ 5.00 pm we start the afternoon with some great Experimenta inspired activities for kids to share with their family members including a space creature scavenger hunt and new lifeforms craft activity.
  • 5.00 pm โ€“ 7.00 pm The DJ will start playing and Pop-Up Bar opens, nibbles available.

At the end of the event we encourage you to wear your dress up creations out to dinner.

Tickets are $12, $10 for NERAM Culture Club members and kids under 16 are free. Book your tickets online at https://www.neram.com.au/event/galaxy-experimenta/
