Ping Pong WoW

Balls fling, drop and bounce;

Spherical sculptures manifest;

Tales of sea turtle eggs unfold;

And the constant task of filling and emptying buckets always seems to please!

Get amongst a whole lot of ping pong balls for this creative play installation, presented as part of Open House Melbourne at ArtPlay. 

See what happens when you enter a space filled with 2000+ ping pong balls, PVC piping and more… oh what possibilities await!

The Ball Room artists believe play to be an essential ingredient in all creative acts, hence their slogan, in play we make art. Ping Pong WoW is their signature participatory work revealing endless manifestations of play.

This experience has been designed to captivate both children and adults alike and is suitable for all abilities. 

Each child must be accompanied by an adult, and if you are bringing more than one child, it is recommended that extra adults attend.
