Kids Day: Leonora Carrington in Wonderland

On Sundays at 3 pm, free workshops for children aged 4 to 10 take place at the museum. Younger visitors are introduced to art in an accessible and engaging way, and are also given the opportunity to learn and explore various topics and experiment with different art techniques.

What happens when words disappear, and only images tell the story? Step into a world of wonder and imagination in this special workshop!
Inspired by Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland—a story that amazed and bewildered generations—and the Ssurrealist art of Leonora Carrington, we’ll explore how Carroll’s fantastical world influenced surrealism. From white rabbits in waistcoats, to dreamlike creatures in Carrington’s paintings, we’ll dive into a universe where anything is possible!
Let’s create our own silent book, filling its pages with magical transformations, mythical creatures, and mysterious landscapes. Get ready to let your imagination run wild—no words needed!

The workshop is organized is occasion of the 21st edition of Libro che gira, libro che leggi. Festival della lettura 2025, conceived and organized by Biblioteca Ragazzi BarchettaBlu.
