CREATIVE SESSIONS FOR KIDS
Kids is a project that introduces families and children to contemporary art with instruments and ideas that arouse curiosity and an understanding of the thoughts and techniques of today’s artists, through materials and experiences that are new and different every time.
Every Saturday and Sunday, Pirelli HangarBicocca offers activities and workshops that let children and young people discover and explore Bruce Nauman and Dineo Seshee Bopape's temporary exhibitions and Anselm Kiefer's permanent installation.
Come and join us!
