Have a look at the programme and sign up for Art Break
Tuesday 18 February 1PM–3PM | Museum Detectives’ Image Hunt
Almost anything can be found in the museum. Together, we will search for different colors, objects, figures, and places with the help of clues, which will lead us into imaginary worlds. Inspired by our discoveries, we will draw series of pictures. In the end, we will together have a look at the stories created from our pictures together. What would happen if you’d change the order of the images — would the story change completely? Join us to find out what adventures the clues will lead you to!
Art Break is a guided workshop. Remember that children should always attend Art Break with an accompanying adult.
The workshop will be held in Finnish and English.
Participation and supplies are included in the museum entrance fee (20/10 €, free entry for ages under 18).
We collect your name and email address to be able to inform you about possible changes. Information regarding our Customer Register and data protection can be found here (in Finnish).

Wednesday 19 February 1PM–3PM | Moving Through Play
What kind of traces does movement leave? We will do different body exercises to perceive motion. Together, we will draw the moving body on a giant sheet of paper. We’ll explore non-verbal communication using different senses and engage in playful activities together. We will discover and try various ways of presenting art, and at the end, reflect on what we took away from this workshop.

Thursday 20 February 1PM–3PM | From Words to Shapes
How can words be used in art? We will explore and discuss what literary art is and how it can be created, seen, and heard. In the exhibition space, we will examine the titles of artworks. What new information can the title reveal about an artwork, and how do image and text influence each other? Afterward, in the workshop space, we will try different ways to use words and letters creatively. We will create pictures and collages from words, combining them with drawings. The workshop does not require reading skills.

Friday 21 February 1PM–3PM | Journey with Patterns and Shapes
We will dive into the soft world of printed textiles through patterns! A pattern is a composition formed by repeating motifs. What kinds of designs would your dream fabric have?
The pattern workshop starts with exploring printed textiles in the exhibition. What colors look good next to each other, and what rhythms can be found in the surfaces of printed fabrics?
After this, we will move to the workshop space, where each participant will design their own stamp. The stamp will be used to print a pattern on fabric. The end result will be a fabric swatch with a pattern you designed yourself.
