As part of the project “Travelling Aristavėlė Manor” (LT04-1-KM-K01-011) an educational workshop-camp for children/young people will be organized on the 19th – 21st of April. The participants of the workshop/camp are children from socially marginalized backgrounds: Paparčiai Saint Juozapas Family Home Community Children’s Home, from the children’s day-care centers of Palomenė and Paparčiai, from foster families.
During the camp, participants will be introduced to cultural heritage and Lithuanian ethnography. The children will do activities related to the art of their own country, play games, and engage in color therapy. The educational activities will be led by professional artists with many years of experience. During the camp, participants will create works of art and drawings that will be transferred to the “Traveling Aristavėlė Manor” as an informative and educational tool for the children of the regions participating in the events. The presentation of the created artifacts at the events of the “Traveling Aristavėlė Manor” is a very important outcome of this workshop, as it will allow the participants to feel that they are playing a significant role in shaping the culture through the artifacts they have made, and in the presenting of them to the visitors of the event.
The project is funded by the EEA and Norway Grants under the program “Developing Access to Culture and Strengthening Cultural Education”.
