Es Baluard’s educational activities for families are starting tomorrow. This programme, to take place some Saturdays until next 29 May 2010, is coordinated by Es Baluard’s educational area and has the collaboration of Obra Social “SA NOSTRA”.

Workshops for families have been celebrated at Es Baluard since its overture, year 2004, and its objectives are to get museum and contemporary art closer to children and adult, through group working, while promoting the concept a museum is a place for learning and having fun. These workshops are for free in the adults’ case, and it has a cost of one euro for each child.

Considering last year’s success, Es Baluard is going to celebrate again the family workshop for 3 to 5 years’ children. On this occasion, the project is designed by architect Txell Cisa and is inspired on Es Baluard’s walls.
