About this Event
Our workshop arises as an extension of the reading sessions that take place on Saturday mornings at Good Company Bookstore. The objective is to give body to the inner world of each participant, whether from the stories heard the previous week or from the need to transpose their own fantasies into shapes, colors, and textures.
Stencil is a practical tool that allows the creation of compositions in a simple and intuitive way, while also helping children develop their drawing skills. In this workshop, we will create posters using geometric shapes and imagine how we can articulate various basic forms in order to compose a key idea.
Participants will be able to cut out their own stencils or work with pre-made templates to create a visual message.
Tickets for the event
The event has a cost of 7 euros (+tax). We ask that you make the reservation in advance so we can prepare enough materials for all the little artists. Please select how many adults will accompany. If you cannot attend, we ask that you cancel your ticket so that others can join.
What are we going to do?
Each session is unique and offers a structured script, designed to guide each child in the exploration of the contours of their imagination. We are going to discover different themes, techniques, and supports in each encounter. Here, we demystify the idea of "not having a knack" or "I can't" and we celebrate experimentation as an essential part of the process.
What do you need to bring?
Nothing special, just bring your curiosity! We provide all the necessary materials to materialize ideas into physical creations.
Who is this event for?
This workshop is for all children who want to expand their creative horizons through art. So that they feel safe and integrated, parents and caregivers are welcome to accompany the sessions.
A note from the hostess
The project is open to suggestions! Our hostess, Margarida, will be attentive to the tastes and proposals of each child, in order to shape her offer to our little artists.
