The “Planets and Satellites” workshop will take us to a discovery tour around the Solar System. Together with the children, we will be assigned planets and all observe our size and relative distance to the Sun, and perform Solar and Lunar eclipses. During the workshop, we explore planets and moons via celestial body models, while enhancing our cognitive, socio-emotional and psychomotor skills through the inquiry-based learning method.

Souvenirs of the Future

Souvenirs of the Future

You try to remember the future. A bird painted on the ceramic panel in a historical palace has found its place on the wall. The tiles of a church and a mosque have been painted on canvas. The pattern of a centuries-old ceramic plate appears before you on a velvet curtain.

Memory of Objects

Memory of Objects

In his book exploring the cultural history of souvenirs, Rolf Potts discusses how such objects assume meaning through personal stories: Objects turn into memories with the stories they hold.
