IAG Kids: LightPlay
Enter the dazzling world of LightPlay, where curiosity sparks and ideas really come to light!
Step into a world where light becomes an element of creativity, curiosity, and discovery.
Immerse yourself in an environment filled with glowing possibilities. Using light boxes, overhead projectors, torches, and translucent materials, investigate how light behaves, and experiment with kaleidoscopic patterns that shift and change with every movement. Build, arrange, and transform your surroundings, revealing the surprising ways light interacts with shapes and textures.
Use your body to paint with light, watching colours mix and shadows stretch in unexpected ways. These playful interactions encourage curiosity, problem‑solving, and a deeper understanding of cause and effect.
LightPlay embraces the educational philosophies of Reggio Emilia and REmida to provide a creative environment for children which encourages collaborative play, experimentation and discovery-based learning. The environment is intentionally designed to support open-ended discovery of ideas through hands‑on interaction.
Let your imagination shine and experience the wonder of illuminated discovery at LightPlay!
At Ipswich Art Gallery from 28 March 2026 – 12 July 2026. Suitable for ages 3-8 years,
