Free activity guide for children between 5 and 10 years old at the MUNTREF Museum of Visual Arts.

The program Holidays in the Museum consists of a proposal of Art Workshops for children in which different artistic languages such as music, theatre, movement and literature are combined and integrated, taking, as its center, the visual arts. In each of the workshops a different thematic axis is taken and different materials, techniques and tools are explored. Huge cities inhabited by miniature characters are built, works with movement splashed with paint are designed, strange places full of stories are invented with brushes and rollers… The children take home all the productions made in each of the workshops.
