Arty the gnome leads kids through the show, where they are prompted to think about why artists chose ordinary objects and materials and transformed them into art work.
'Lost and Found' features major works from the Gallery's Collection, including sculpture, collage, installation, video, jewellery, painting and photography. It incorporates a number of innovative displays arranged according to the types of found objects used, such as clothing, food, souvenirs, natural objects and road signs.
A 'Lost and Found' activity booklet, a unique studio for kids designed by local artist Madonna Staunton, and special workshops encourage young visitors to engage with the art works.
