Funky Buddhas 2009 at the Elizabeth Guzsely Gallery, Cooktown On Saturday 16 January 2010, 40 regional venues hosted a free day of activities simultaneously with the Queensland Art Gallery, as part of the Kids’ APT Summer Festival. Kids’ APT on Tour featured interactive activities for children and families created by a number of artists in the exhibition, including Ayaz Jokhio, Minam Apang and Runa Islam. The projects were developed to reflect the themes of the APT exhibition offering children and families insights into contemporary art across the Asia Pacific region. Kids’ APT on Tour The team at QAG and GoMA, and the artists involved, created a wonderfully organised event with engaging activities that offered something for every age, skill level, gender and interest.
