Programme for children and teenagers

At me Collectors Room, children and teenagers can explore the current exhibition and the Wunderkammer in a wide variety of ways, using all senses, not just sight. On offer are both a programme for school groups that can be individually tailored in liaison with teachers, and an extra-curricular range of activities.

At the heart of our work lie the curiosity and the participants’ desire to explore, as they are given the chance to follow, scrutinize and give creative responses to various topics, in workshops and tours aided by artists and a team of art, drama and music teachers.

Take the WUNDERKAMMER CROCODILE, for example, which leads younger children to track down things on a treasure hunt, or to gather musical notes and sounds. Children and teenagers are given the chance to devise artistically inspired research tasks and explore the relationship between artefact and nature.

The programme of activities has been conceived for various age groups and was created in conjunction with Stiftung Federkiel.
