Have your senses tickled at Lopdell House Gallery. A colour-coded treasure trove inspired by Dr Seuss, Tickle My Senses is an interactive exhibition of over 40 artworks from The Dowse collection. The show encourages visitors to respond to art in ways beyond just looking. By tickling our senses of touch, taste, smell, hearing and sight, visitors will enjoy a range of eclectic artworks in innovative and playful ways.

Concept developer Leanne Wickham says, "The show is a great way to discover how we learn about the world around us and how all our senses - not just sight - help us appreciate and understand art."

Touch boxes encourage children to feel how materials are different in texture and shape, and smell drawers allow children to explore how smells can remind you of a person, place or time. Beautiful light boxes glow and change colour, and the taste encounter shows how artworks can make you salivate! Visitors can also pick up a phone and listen to soundscapes attached to Don Binney's Mexico and Barry Brickell's Animotive I.

Using innovative and playful design elements Tickle My Senses is an exhibition not to be missed by anyone who enjoys a giggle when looking at art. So come and look, listen, touch, taste and smell for a really stimulating art experience.
