Drop-in Workshop „Mystical Characters“
In the drop-in, you can take a closer look at the exhibition „History and Mystery. Latin American Art and Europe“, which features colourful wooden sculptures by Líbero Badí, who called them „Dolls“. Using different materials and colours, the participants create a small statue, to which they can add the character’s name and background story.
In October, the during the school break, our Education Centre will organize a drop-in workshop. We recommend that you take some time to visit the exhibition before or after the workshop, so you can see the artworks that inspired our curators while preparing the programme.
Children and young people aged between 6* and 12 and their parents are welcome to participate, but children older than 12 can also come if they wish. Children eight years of age or younger should be accompanied by an adult. Workshop languages: Estonian, Russian and English
