Operation Art is the premier state-wide visual arts exhibition for school students from Kindergarten to Year 10. Every year, schools across New South Wales are invited to participate in Operation Art, an initiative of The Children’s Hospital at Westmead in association with the New South Wales Department of Education.

With more than 700 artworks by students from hundreds of schools throughout NSW, this year’s exhibition is a great opportunity to celebrate the creative talents of our young people. For the first time, you can view Operation Art in person or online.
