Juvenilia is work produced by an author or artist while they were a child.
Time: During Shepparton Library opening hours - see website for details
This exhibition showcases the juvenilia of Australian children’s authors and illustrators and their early attempts at storytelling. Everyone starts somewhere. Whether it is handwriting stories on scrap paper or drawing pictures in pencil and then rubbing them out, today’s most prominent creators of children’s books all started as children too, dreaming about being able to publish their own story.
Featuring work by Andy Griffiths, Alison Lester, Graeme Base, Ursula Dubosarsky, Danny Katz, Oliver Phommavanh, Aimee Chan, Chris Kennett, Kylie Howarth, Trent Roberts, Dianne Wolfer, Susanne Gervay, Tim Harris, Hazel Edwards, Jeremy Lachlan, Craig Sheather and Mandy Foot.
