🧡 We invite you to Zuzeum children’s art workshops for kids of all ages. The theme of the class and materials change each Sunday at 11:15 AM.
Children’s art is an exciting adventure, a valuable learning experience, and, most importantly, a way to express their feelings and emotions. Creative activities reflect a child’s inner world and help shape it. Our primary goal is to allow children to explore and unleash their creative potential. We offer various themes and materials, with classes in multiple spaces—from exhibition halls to art studios with beautiful and inspiring interiors.
In our classes, children do more than draw. We show them that art can be multifaceted: abstract, realistic, flat, or three-dimensional. Since our sessions are held in an art center, children can engage with exhibitions, learn about local and international artists, and, inspired by the works of professionals, create their masterpieces.
Upcoming workshops
THE NEW SEASON OF WORKSHOPS!
For the fifth year, we welcome the youngest visitors to the Art Centre for Sunday workshops.
📅 MAY
🟢 11 May, Sunday, 11:15-12:15, lesson for children from 4 to 11 years old
🧑🏼🎨 MY MOM IS THE BEST
Portraiture is an ancient art form that goes back at least to ancient Egypt, where it flourished about 5,000 years ago. Portraits have always been more than just a record. They have been used to show the power, importance, virtue, beauty, wealth, taste, learning, or other qualities of the sitter.
Not all portraits have to be realistic – they can be abstract or full of symbols.
In this Sunday’s lesson, children will paint a portrait of their mother.
🎨 Materials: paper, acrylic paint.
🟣 18 May, Sunday, 11:15-12:15, lesson for children from 4 to 11 years old
🧑🏼🎨 MARIONETTES
The first marionettes, made of clay and ivory, were found in burials in Ancient Egypt. They were used in various rituals with strictly defined movements. Later, mechanical wooden puppets, originally used in performances in Venice, were called marionettes, whose movements were controlled by a manipulator.
In this Sunday’s lesson, the children will design their own marionette – a theatre puppet that can be operated with threads or strings.
🎨 Materials: stiff paper, coloured pencils, felt-tip pens, plastic beads, oil crayons, glue, and pieces of fabric.
🟡 25 May, Sunday, 11:15-12:15, lesson for children from 4 to 11 years old
🧑🏼🎨 LARGE-SCALE PAINTING
History has proved time and again that two creative minds can sometimes be better than one. Even today, artists are increasingly collaborating with each other and with creative professionals from other fields.
In the last workshop in May, we will work together to create a large-scale painting.
Young artists will have access to a wide range of textile paints to realise their ideas.
🎨 Materials: canvas, fabric printing colours
