As every year, the Museum of the Macedonian Struggle is pleased to organize the summer workshops for children aged 5-12 years old, in the Museum’s premises and in the neighbouring courtyard of the 43rd Primary School. The programme of the workshops promotes a creative approach to the history of Macedonia through artistic, literary and digital activities. This time we are preparing surprises with short excursions-explorations in our city! Children will have the opportunity to get to know the monuments located in the neighbourhood of the Museum and to understand the value of Public Art through pleasant and original activities that include observation, painting, photography and audio recordings, collection of physical material as well as kinetic and theatrical games. Our goal is to create a stable group of young museum lovers, who will leave original work and their own artistic imprint on the cultural events of the city.
