We want to guide children on their journey to discovering the beauty of architecture and to learning about the captivating stories related to the history of the buildings. That is why we organized 7 tours in buildings with worksheets for little architects, which arouse creativity and help children learn about architecture-related terms and topics in a fun way. These tours took place at ARA Palace, National Library of Technology, Quadrio, Sokol Gymnasium in Nové Město, Štenc House, and Trmal Villa.
At the UMPRUM Technology Center, children and their parents could have fun in a workroom with Lego and Duplo bricks all weekend, thanks to our longtime collaboration with our partner Czech RepuBRICK. Admission was free.
Other festival buildings offered programs for children as well. At the Gráf Hotel – I. P. Pavlova 5, there was a creative workshop by Porigami. On Kostnické Square in Žižkov, there was an outdoor performance titled Škatulení by Mirka Eliášová et al. At the National House in Karlín, which houses the studios of ČRo DAB Praha, children learned about radio broadcasting. The Czech Hydrometeorological Institute opened several of its buildings in Komořany, including the Central Forecasting Office. On top of that, children had the opportunity to see the backstage of several Prague theaters – Image Theater in Metro Palace, Švanda Theater in Smíchov, Na Zábradlí Theater, and DISK Theater. Finally, they could also explore the engine room and steering room of the historical ship Vyšehrad.
