Thanks to C&K Childcare & Kindergarten, Thrive on Arts Festival is blooming on the lawn of The Empire for the September school holidays. Thrive on Arts is a creative space for young people, families and the wider community that celebrates play, imagination, creativity and storytelling during Toowoomba’s most vibrant and floral time of year. In 2024, The Empire is celebrating the natural world. The program features shows, stories and experiences for ages 0-12 years and their adults so look out for summersaulting bees, turtles that need help looking after country and lions who have lost their voice! Whether it be music, a show, craft or a picnic that brings you to the space, stay a while and experience something wonderful!
