The Art House
A huge summer
for kids at the art house
Beat the Heat with The Art House’s family
holiday line up of Summer fun!
The Art House has so much on this
summer. There’s no need to head to
Sydney with the affordable, air-conditioned
facilities right on your doorstep.
The Art House’s first show of the year
will be THE all-star musical...
In The Heights (10-12 January)
Coming for an exclusive premiere season
to the Central Coast before heading to
Sydney! Get ready to be on your feet, as
the intoxicating salsa vibes from the live
Latino-band will have the whole family up
and dancing.
Then throughout the rest of January
Tinker Time (14-16 January)
A show all about adventure, pulling things
apart, experimenting and being unafraid to
make mistakes. Nay Nay loves to sing and
dance, Tinker, thinks outside the square
and encourages kids to be brave and have
individual thoughts.
Escape from Trash Mountain
(18-19 January)
An epic tale of trashy proportions!
Join our puppet heroes as they escape
the dreaded landfill in search of a better
life. Be amazed as they fight trash bats,
navigate treacherous ravines, and outwit
hideous trash monsters! Trash Puppeteers
Jhess Knight, Amy Moule, and Ben
Anderson bring to life a heart-warming
story about hope and rubbish, in a new
environmentally sustainable production by
the team at Trash Puppets!
Combine the Trash Mountain show with
a Trash Puppet Workshop!
Put sustainability into action by creating
your very own trash puppet! Under expert
guidance this 90 minute workshop, will
teach you all the things you need to know
about string, rod and glove puppets and
give you space to let your imagination
run wild as you dive into a trashy new
world. Our workshops provide a creative,
hands-on, (clean and safe) experience of
core sustainability messages – waste less,
recycle right!

KIDZ O N T H E C OA S T
Children are Stinky (Jan 21-23)
All children are stinky,
right?
Against a backdrop of
high calibre circus, a
rocking ‘90s soundtrack
and genuine belly
laughs, this acrobatic
duo’s attempts to prove
kids STINK are met
with messy, ridiculous
and hysterical twists.
They only succeed in
proving that children
are awesome…and they
know it!
Expect daredevil stunts, incredible acrobatics, lightning fast hula hoops,
loads of laughs and mischievous fun.
Off the back of five star sell-out shows at Edinburgh Fringe, this action-
packed circus extravaganza will have your jaws on the floor hooting for more!
Perfect for stinky kids aged 2+
The Art House has heaps more
than shows on this summer.
Need a cool alternative to the
beach or want to get out of
the house in afternoon? The
Art House opened its café
in 2017. Open 10-5 Monday-
Friday, it’s totally kid friendly,
with a sheltered courtyard and
grassy area, kid-friendly food
and art on the walls. Relax and
sit back with delicious coffee
and a great selection of sweet and savoury food. The perfect place for your
morning coffee, a light lunch or afternoon tea!
Whatever your plans are this summer, make The Art House a part of them!
