LEARNING THROUGH BODY & MOVEMENT

What happens when museum education is led through shared choreography and dance?

Students’ everyday lives are filled with screens, visual stimuli, and distractions. In Dancing in the Streets, we focus on being present — in the moment, in the space, in our bodies, with all senses engaged.

This workshop tells the story of dance leaving the stage and spilling out into the city streets.

Students will work with a mix of dance, photography, drawing, sculpture, performance, collage, and costume design.

We’ll dance through an endless room of golden mirrors, travel to a dance protest in Rio de Janeiro, and explore dance costumes made from a unique textile created from the “skin” of buildings.

So come along – and dance with us into the world of art!

Duration: 1.5 hours

TASTE THE ART – THE IMPACT OF FOOD

In Taste the Art, we explore the connection between food, art, and sustainability. Students are introduced to new flavors and stories about ingredients with remarkable qualities: they taste great – and they help take care of our planet.

This workshop combines knowledge about ingredients, climate, and the environment with creative practice. Together, we gather around the table to discover new tastes. Afterwards, students are introduced to printmaking techniques, allowing them to create their own food posters inspired by their new knowledge of the ingredients.

The workshop is part of MAPS Becoming CLIMAVORE, focusing on the role of art institutions in a sustainable future. The program is developed in collaboration with the museum café, which regularly offers seasonal menus based on local and regenerative ingredients.

Subjects: Danish, Visual Arts, and Food Science
Duration: 1.5 hours
Price: 600 DKK
Target group: 4th–6th grade

PHILOSOPHY FOR CHILDREN THROUGH ART

Join us in the exhibition The Story of Public Art!

We use art to explore what memories are. The focus is not on the students’ personal memories, but rather on putting concrete words and images to something as abstract as time.

The students’ curiosity is the starting point as we wonder together about philosophical questions like: What do you store memories in? What material is a memory made of? And what happens to a lost memory? Together, we explore an infinite space built from golden mirrors. We venture into an abandoned, rusty car with a trunk full of memories, and we experience a flying house made from the “skin” of buildings. During the day, we create new shared memories, which we end by saving in our individual memory books that the students take home with them.
