Summer Camp: Your very own garden!

Have you ever thought that you can create your own garden inside the Museum?

The B&E Goulandris Foundation is holding a Summer Camp for the first time! Children aged 7 to 10 can take part in any of the Camp’s three independent series, running from June 27 to July 15 (FOR CHILDREN AGED 5-7 CLICK HERE). At the nature-based Summer Camp Your very own garden!, children will discover the different aspects of art inside the Museum and outdoors, through multidisciplinary art workshops inspired by the works of the Foundation’s Collection.

Every morning, the children will visit the nearby National Garden to discover the “secrets” behind the artists’ inspiration. Through various group games that will trigger their senses and release their creativity, they will collect information about the Garden’s tall trees and exciting stories, the blue sky, the fertile ground and the hidden sounds. The exploration of nature will continue inside the Museum, where the children will discover the unique landscapes in the Foundation’s Collection. Following their tour, they will turn into artists and “take over” the Children’s Workshop to design and create their very own garden, using their imagination and simple materials.

Working with a different material every day, the children will gradually build their own garden inspired by team power and the positive effects of interacting with the environment. At the end of each series, they will present a three-dimensional group installation at the Museum’s foyer, under the guidance of the Foundation’s learning team and with the active participation of their parents/guardians.
