Pera Kids
Ages 9-12
Children visiting Pera Museum have the opportunity to experience it layer by layer, from its exterior facade to its floors, from Osman Hamdi Bey exhibition floor to his fictional workspace, and finally inside the painting The Tortoise Trainer. At the end of this process, the children create a design that encompasses all these layers. They are invited to embark on this journey, which includes different and interactive stages such as a museum tour, virtual reality experience, and artistic production.
Capacity: 10 people
Duration: 90 minutes
The event is free of charge. Reservation is required.
The event will take place in the Pera Museum (face-to-face).

Ali Sami is born in Rusçuk in 1866, and moves to İstanbul. Because his family is registered in the Beylerbeyi quarter of Üsküdar, Ali Sami is also called Üsküdarlı Ali Sami. He graduates from the Mühendishane-i Berri-i Hümayun in 1866 and becomes a teacher of painting and photography at the school.
Berggren acquires the techniques of photography in Berlin and holds different jobs in various European cities before arriving in İstanbul. Initially en route to Marseille, he disembarks from his ship in 1866 and settles in İstanbul, where he is to spend the rest of his life.
Following the opening of his studio, “El Chark Societe Photographic,” on Beyoğlu’s Postacılar Caddesi in 1857, the Levantine-descent Pascal Sébah moves to yet another studio next to the Russian Embassy in 1860 with a Frenchman named A. Laroche, who, apart from having worked in Paris previously, is also quite familiar with photographic techniques.
