Midnight in the City

Welcome to the City of Paper.
It’s time to decorate the streets.

Laid out in front of the participants is an empty, colourless city and it’s their job to decorate it.

We have provided textas, photocopied images, coloured and plain paper and the obligatory glue sticks, scissors and tape.
Feel free to chop, change, mix up, mash up, create from scratch, rip, tear, cut, paste, draw, make or build upon what is laid out in front of you.

Participants were encouraged to make the streets their gallery in this gallery of streets.
Bring on the art.

Midnight in the City was first run at Pop Up Playground’s National Gallery of Victoria residency in 2010. It is a drop in playful experience for people of all ages.
