About Family Workshop: Lunar New Year
Join author Lucy Tandon Copp and illustrator Ya-Ling Huang for a special Lunar New Year storytelling.
Discover their picture book, Logan's Lantern, where we'll meet a brave little dragon off on a big adventure to a very special celebration.
Experience Lunar New Year, explore texture and colour as we make our very own clay 'rice balls' and get creative with an interactive draw-a-long.
Please book one ticket for each member of your group.

Families are welcome at all of the Library’s cafés and restaurants. The Terrace Café on the first floor has lots of seating (including an outdoor terrace for sunny days). Highchairs are available in the Terrace Café and the Upper Ground Floor Café, subject to availability.
Families with children may also bring their own food to eat outside on the Piazza or in our public spaces, and there are water fountains that can be used to refill water bottles across the building. Please do not consume food or drink inside the exhibition galleries.
