Arts Centre Melbourne is passionate about engaging young people, their families and communities with the exciting world of live performance, taking them on shared journeys of unforgettable discovery.

Our 2013 Families & Youth program is our largest and most exciting yet, offering something for all ages - tiny tots, kids and teenagers - plus things the whole family can enjoy together.

This year features thrilling theatrical circuses and multimedia mind-bends, larger-than-life interactive art right on the Arts Centre Melbourne Forecourt, a smorgasbord of offerings in The Famous Spiegeltent, the chance for young people to foster their own inner artist through one of our many creative workshops, in addition to international Australian premieres. And that's just the beginning.
