Maja Celija
A statue as a friend
workshop ages 5-8 years – 60 minutes; 20 participants
With the succession of seasons, everything moves and changes shape in the garden. In summer the colours are more vivid, a sudden downpour clears the sky. In autumn, the lawn turns yellow, and the leaves pile up. Then comes winter and everything seems to stop. Or maybe not… here it is: a special statue ready to come out of the sheet and leave with you!
