Teens take over the NGV in this teen exclusive, after-hours event featuring art, performance, music and workshops.

Dress up or down but don some colour and enter Bonnard’s iridescent world for one Saturday night only.
This event is strictly for secondary school-aged students with a valid secondary school ID or Victorian Student Pass.
Event highlights include a live music performance by KYE, spring hairstyles by James Hatton Hair, photobooths and drawing workshops.
Full program to feature shortly.
Bonnard: Designed by India Mahdavi
Pierre Bonnard is one of the most beloved painters of the twentieth century, celebrated for his use of colour to convey an exquisite sense of emotion. His close friend Henri Matisse declared that Bonnard was ‘a great painter, for today and definitely also for the future’. Opening in June 2023, the blockbuster Melbourne Winter Masterpieces® exhibition Pierre Bonnard presents the iridescent paintings of Bonnard within immersive scenography by Paris-based designer India Mahdavi.
