The Hermitage for Children project - museum classes for children from 0 to 5 years old Automatic translate

On September 3, 2016, new programs developed for families with children from 0 to 5 years old begin to work in the State Hermitage Museum. Every week at the Restoration and Storage Center "Old Village" on weekdays and weekends classes, tours, concerts, performances designed specifically for museums will be held.

The “Kids at the Museum” project arose in St. Petersburg in 2013 at the initiative of the Art ParkING Center and is currently being implemented in 15 museums. During this time, classes were attended by over 30,000 children. This is the first acquaintance with the world of art for kids. Education in an atmosphere of creativity and history is an important step in the comprehensive development of the child. In addition, classes are just as interesting for adults.

Classes at the State Hermitage are designed separately for each age. Groups of 10 people are created taking into account the age and level of development of children. The cycle consists of 17 meetings, which include adapted thematic classes in open-storage halls and in other rooms of the Restoration and Storage Center, where children can do painting, modeling, sand animation, applique, play musical instruments, participate in a puppet theater, get in into the world of ancient dances. Each lesson is directly related to the museum theme and individual exhibits, around which the drama of the cycle is built.

All programs are developed by researchers at the State Hermitage together with the team of the Art ParkING Center — soloists of theaters and philharmonic societies, pedagogues and psychologists.
