Short creativity workshops (2
hours or longer) can be arranged, either after performances or on their
own.
PUPPET WORKSHOP - a
chosen (an existing) tale is used as a basis
for children to create their puppets and perform a play. This
workshop's main
aim is to stimulate children to continue and complement existing tales.
It's
suitable for pre-school children and younger elementary school pupils.
COMICS WORKSHOP - after being
introduced to basic principles of comic narration, children are
encouraged to
create their own comic on a given (or freely chosen) theme. Nowadays,
comics
are no longer perceived as "pulp" and its importance in (non-verbal)
communication has been taken increasingly seriously. We consider it a
specific
visual-literary form, its language being perhaps most closely related
to the
one used by movies. Workshop is suitable for both elementary and high schools.
FOLKLORE MUSIC INSTRUMENTS WORKSHOP - several
simple folk instruments are shown to children. Children then use simple
everyday material to make their own instruments and use them to
accompany their
singing of a folk song which they learn in the workshop. Suitable for
lower
stages of elementary school.
