NUCLEI & FAMILIES
Workshop for families to discover the GAMeC Collections
A nucleus can be the kernel of a nut, the inner part of an organism or structure, the beginning of a story, a group of objects or people, a family. The cooperative workshop will take participants to explore the cores of the GAMeC Collections. Participants will make a surprising discovery: they themselves are a resource and part of the museum’s heritage, but for this to happen they need to take part in a game of research and encounters through letters, music, feelings and materials.
Free activity; admission fee based on membership category
