Upsound Instruments – Make & Play Workshop Area
Bang, blow, saw, hammer, pluck, and pull your way to building a unique, playable instrument. Bring your imagination and a grown-up (they get in free). At this fun, hands-on workshop area you’ll craft your own musical instrument from upcycled materials! Transform broken, foraged and found objects, natural materials and even trash … into musical masterpieces. Will you choose to reimagine the classics and make a guitar, horn or drum? Or let your imagination run wild and build your very own, one-of-a-kind creation. Whatever you choose, you’ll get to take home your own Upsound instrument. Join Dutch sound artist and violinist Jacob Plooij for this Australian premiere that’s sure to strike a chord with the whole family!
“We love to use materials that other people see as waste and turn them into something new! If you have an old toy or a broken instrument lying around, it might just be the perfect piece for an upcycled instrument. Bring it along to the workshop area.”
