Space and Time: Spaceship Museum – The Kid’s Cosmos 2023/24
Lorem ipsum
An early-childhood cultural education project that introduces young children to the museum as a place they can shape and are free to explore. Its themes include art and nature, space and time, and present and future.
In this project, 320 children from Berlin, ages 4 to 8, share their ideas, questions, concerns and stories with six Berlin museums. Accompanied by an interdisciplinary team of artists, educators and museum staff, the children are introduced to the “Spaceship Museum” which is on a mission to discover new worlds. The kids take the helm and set course for the future. Which direction do they take? What questions are important? What do we need? How can we protect our habitats and design them more sustainably?
Early-childhood developmental processes, childhood experiences and actions are central to the project’s artistic modules. These are designed to promote partner-based collaboration. The events allow children to experiment with various analogue and digital media and forms of expression. In addition to offering new experiences and impressions, the project includes a children’s symposium as a new format of artistic encounter. Two networking meetings and a diversity-oriented intersectional event offer participants the chance to reflect on the project.
