Explore the art, design, and material culture of the Roman world, inspired by Melbourne Museum's current touring exclusive exhibition ROME: Empire, Power, People.

Sketch objects from the exhibition and consider how form, detail, and symbolism reveal power, belief, and everyday life across the Empire. These works offer rich opportunities for close observation and creative interpretation.

Working on iPad Pros in the Learning Lab, you’ll experiment with digital drawing techniques translating historical objects into contemporary digital responses.

Designed for all skill levels, this relaxed workshop invites you to connect with art and history hands-on, bringing the ancient world to life through digital practice.
