🎨 Tamashobana Art Laboratory is a diverse and engaging way for children to approach the vast world of art, starting with the creativity of early humans, continuing through Renaissance painters, and, of course, including contemporary art.
🖌️ In this course format, theory and practice go hand in hand. Each session begins with an introduction to the history and theory of the topic, followed by practical, hands-on creative activities.
🖼️ Children will explore the evolution of art from cave paintings to contemporary works, discover styles and artists from different eras, and create their own artworks inspired by historical and modern art. Through this process, they learn to express ideas using colors, shapes, and materials.
🎯 Goals: Children will engage with interesting theoretical material and create artworks inspired by the discussed themes and artists, using various materials and media. Traveling through different eras and cultures will spark interest in art and develop imagination and creativity.
