Description
The children's workshops at FICA Oficina Criativa are based on real practices, such as ceramics, carpentry, screen printing, engraving and/or textiles, adapted to different ages, while maintaining the essence of each process.
Throughout the workshops, the children work with hands-on materials, tools, and manual techniques. They build objects, experiment with printing techniques, and explore color, shape, and structure, developing skills through hands-on practice
Each activity is designed to stimulate attention, coordination, and independence. It is also a space to experiment, try out solutions, make mistakes, and discover what you can do with your own hands.
Plan of the week
In these workshops for children, the week is organized into blocks of activities throughout the day, combining different techniques and materials. The goal is to expose children to various creative arts, maintaining a balance between concentration and experimentation.
Monday ❯ Monoprints (screen printing) and Olaria
Tuesday ❯ Tile Painting and Construction with Wood
Wednesday ❯ Buildings with Brick and Cyanotype
The program is subject to change.
