Upcoming: Summer Art Exhibitions
December 2025 – February 2026
The Art Program is delighted to present the fourth rotation of exhibitions in the 2025 exhibition season, with four new displays filling the corridors of the Hospital from December 2025 - February 2026.
This season we are celebrating the creativity and voices of young people from inside the hospital and across NSW.
We have collaborated with our friends in music therapy, the Livewire team, the Department of Education, including schools across the state, and Flying High - a unique community fundraising initiative, to bring you these colourful exhibitions across ground level and level 2 of Sydney Children’s Hospital.
We hope you enjoy these exhibitions as much as we do and join us in celebrating the incredible community around us, dedicated to kids’ health and the joy of creativity!
Flying High
Flying High was an installation-based children’s art exhibition that celebrated the limitless spirit of childhood. Held as a fundraiser for Sydney Children’s Hospitals Foundation it was developed through art therapy experiences facilitated by teacher, artist and holistic art therapy practitioner Janani Peiris. Elements of the exhibition, made by patients from Sydney Children’s Hospitals Network, are displayed at Randwick hospital to show the creativity of our patients and the beauty of the original installation.
Livewire
For the Record
Join us for a teen-led gallery exhibition of painted record clocks, album cover designs and personally curated playlists!
Livewire's annual summer art exhibition led by patients aged 12-25, "For the Record" is a mixed media presentation of functional art in response to the theme of Memories & Nostalgia.

Operation Art is an annual exhibition celebrating its 30th Anniversary this year. 50 artworks created by students across New South Wales have been exhibited in regional galleries across the state, and now Sydney Children's Hospital, before finding their home at The Children’s Hospital at Westmead, where they will help make sick children feel better through the power of art.
Listen with your Eyes #3
Listen with Your Eyes #3 is a joyful fusion of art and sound, created through a collaboration between the SCHF Art Program and the Hospital’s Music Therapy team. This exhibition features tambourines playfully made into vibrant artworks by young patients and their families, capturing the physical movements involved in making and listening to music.
