Art Workshops for Children - Plaster Casts in the Royal Sculpture Gallery and Foundry

Über die Veranstaltung

Family in shape - a series of workshops for children aged 7-12 (with guardians) During the workshops, where we will make plaster casts by hand, everyone will feel like a royal artist. We invite children aged 7-12 and their guardians. During the workshops, we will jointly view images of mythological sculptures in the Royal Sculpture Gallery and the Orangery Garden. We will also learn where plaster comes from and how it differs from marble. In the second part of the meeting - following the example of royal artists - we will create our own sketches of sculptures and plaster copies of a selected motif or ornament.
