Inspired by the current Gallery exhibition, Emerging from the mist, by James MacSporran, in this Little Artists session, participants will make and decorate their own colourful Train, made out of upcycled boxes and decorated with Posca Pens and markers.

James’ work is inspired by trains and cityscapes and is a blend of abstract work and graffiti.

Let your imagination run wild and create your own unique Train design.

Materials: Upcycled boxes, Posca Pens, markers, glue


Benalla Art Gallery’s Little Artists program is developed specifically for pre-school children. We use games, story-telling and creative activities to encourage young children, and their parents and carers, to have fun while learning about art.

Sessions are free and are scheduled for the first week of each month from February to December.
