A colour-coded treasure trove inspired by Dr Seuss, Tickle
My Senses is an interactive exhibition of over 40 artworks
from The Dowse Art Museum collection. The show encourages visitors
to respond to art in ways beyond just looking. By tickling our
senses of touch, taste, smell, hearing and sight, visitors can
enjoy a range of eclectic artworks in innovative and playful
ways.
Concept developer Leanne Wickham says, "The show is a great way
to discover how we learn about the world around us and how all our
senses - not just sight - help us appreciate and understand
art."
Titirangi will be alive with music and performers out on the
street.
