CERAMICS WORKSHOPS

B /OUT-SIDE The other side of the museum

• 23 January - 8 p.m./10 p.m.

SLAB-YOU (€ 25)

If you slab at the beginning of the year, you slab all year long! Wasn't that the proverb? Come to the museum and discover this technique to create your own desk diary or photo frame.

• 8 February - 3.30 p.m./5.30 p.m.

SHALL WE BE FRIENDS AGAIN? (€ 25)

What could be nicer than the potter's wheel? Will it be as easy as in the film Ghost? How many pots will I be able to make? To find out the answer to all these questions come and try it out! Two and a half hours of group lathe-testing for a first approach and to see if it is the right tool for you or is it better to collect stamps...

WORKSHOPS FOR CHILDREN

from 4 to 11 years old

From January 2025 the workshops in the museum will follow and be inspired by the collection of contemporary works. At each meeting we will explore together, through a narrative, a different work of art, from which we will take inspiration to create our own work of art.

• Saturday 25 January from 4 p.m. to 5.30 p.m.

PORTRAITS DISCOVERING THE MUSEUM

Looking at the work ‘The Lords of the House’, we will introduce the history of the museum, how it came into being, who lived there, by peeking into the wall cupboards on the first floor. During the workshop we will make a photo frame.

• Saturday 15 February from 4 p.m. to 5.30 p.m.

BETWEEN SCRATCHES AND PAINTINGS

What is the ceramic graffiti technique? We will find out thanks to the work ‘Promenade’ by Mirco Denicolò. During the workshop we will decorate a plaque with this technique.

• Saturday 15 March from 4 p.m. to 5.30 p.m.

BRING DADDY TO THE MUSEUM

On the occasion of Father's Day, drawing inspiration from Fabio Taramasco's narrative ‘Formelle’, we will create a portrait by reproducing a photo of dads using the dusting technique. It is necessary to bring a photo printed on 15x15 cm paper.

• Saturday 12 April from 4 p.m. to 5.30 p.m.

SPRING IN THE MUSEUM

We will study the vase from the ‘La Linea’ ceramics workshop, approaching the columbine technique in an alternative way, making a vase decorated with weaves and natural motifs.

• Saturday 10 May from 4 p.m. to 5.30 p.m.

BRING YOUR MOTHER TO THE MUSEUM

On the occasion of Mother's Day, Kazumasa's work ‘The colours that smile’ will transport us into a floral and multicoloured world. Together we will make a three-dimensional flower that looks like Mum.

• Saturday 7 June from 4 p.m. to 5.30 p.m.

CRAZY CUPS

Inspired by Matilde Domestico's ‘Cioccolatazze’, we will make a crazy cup, defying convention and physics!

Cost from 01/01/25: € 8 per child; materials and firing of the work produced are included.
