Pera Kids
Ages 4-6
A fun adventure in pursuit of the squirrel who sneaks into the museum! After listening to the squirrel's tale, children visit Calculations and Coincidences with a guide and collect the transparent geometric shapes left for them in front of some of the works in the exhibition and place them on their squirrel-shaped templates. Afterwards, the children go down to the workshop and use their flashlights to reflect the colorful geometric shapes in their squirrels' bellies on the wall in a dark environment and have a pleasant experience woven with colors and shapes.

Each memory tells an intimate story; each collection presents us with the reality of containing an intimate story as well. The collection is akin to a whole in which many memories and stories of the artist, the viewer, and the collector are brought together. At the heart of a collection is memory, nurtured from the past and projecting into the future.
A firm believer in the idea that a collection needs to be upheld at least by four generations and comparing this continuity to a relay race, Nahit Kabakcı began creating the Huma Kabakcı Collection from the 1980s onwards. Today, the collection can be considered one of the most important and outstanding examples among the rare, consciously created, and long-lasting ones of its kind in Turkey.
