Weekends in 2021 are now ... οnline!&nbsp;

Starting this year, the Museum of Cycladic Art’s popular educational workshops, enjoyed by generations, will take place online! Online weekend workshops, which were organized during the Museum’s closure, will continue until the Museum reopens to the public. Families throughout Greece and Greek-speaking children from around the world are invited to participate!&nbsp; Each weekend until May, children and parents from around the world will discover the Museum through storytelling, interactive tours, art workshops, theatre, photography, and music! The online weekend workshops are made possible with the support of Eurolife FFH, a strategic partner of the Museum of Cycladic Art.&nbsp;

<blockquote>"Discovering Geometric Shapes in the Museum’s Figurines" Sunday, April 18th,&nbsp;06.00-07.30 pm&nbsp;</blockquote>

In this first online workshop for English-speaking children, we visit the Museum and wander through its spacious rooms. We look at large and small figurines while listening to a story about heroes. We look for our story’s heroes, an elegant princess, a mighty warrior, and an imposing king hidden among them. The story takes us to the end of the world in search of the strongest creature alive, stimulating our imagination.







Playing with figurines and shapes gives us the tools to create. Children transform simple household materials into Cycladic and Cypriot figurines representing heroes and kings. Parents sit close to their children and watch as their imaginations awaken and their ideas take shape. 





Tickets: 10 euro (parent and child) Number of children per class: 15





*This workshop is only available to English-speaking children living abroad
