Traditions tiptoeing through intimidating, silent galleries and viewing paintings from afar are forgotten as students interact with art in ways they never imagined.
Connection is an immersive experience about First Peoples’ art, music and performance. It provides valuable cross-curricular educational opportunities for all Australians to learn about the rich cultural heritage and artistic traditions of First Peoples, as expressed by First Peoples.
On a self-led excursion, students will learn about the traditions of acknowledgment and Welcome to Country, immerse themselves in the large-scale presentation of diverse digitised works, and experience original art in both a gallery setting and infinity room setting.
We have prepared a free collection of early-learning, primary and secondary cross-curricular education materials for the use of your class and community - see below for more.
School groups should allow at least 90 minutes for their visit to THE LUME Melbourne. A member of our School Experience team will meet you to assist upon entry to your self-led excursion into Connection.

To support your planning we have collected useful information for your group visit. This includes visit duration, cloaking, travel, risk assessment, and more.
Educators are invited to register for a complimentary pass to experience THE LUME Melbourne at their leisure, assessing its potential as an excursion destination or preparing for an upcoming excursion.
To help you gain a deeper understanding of the history, stories and perspectives of First Peoples communities, we have prepared a free collection of early-learning, primary and secondary cross-curricular education materials for you to use during class and with your community.
These materials have been co-authored by First Peoples.
