Description

ARTos Foundation is proud to present this year’s Winter Kids University, entitled “METAPOLIS: Intervention in the City | Young Architects & Engineers”, which will take place on the 5 January 2016, as a one-day crash course.

Through a series of participatory workshops for children between the ages of 6 - 12 years old, Kids University aims to promote the knowledge and experience that help to create strong personalities and creative and critical thinkers, with free will and confidence.

For the 2016 trilogy, Kids University partners up with the Creative Europe Programme ARTECITYA 2014 – 2018, for a series of actions focusing on the transformation and improvement of our own districts and neighbourhoods. The Winter Kids University, will draw inspiration from architecture, engineering, innovation and social impact. Together, and with the use of discarded and re-usable materials we will create shelters for the stray dogs and cats in the Pedieos Linear Park, Nicosia. Through the use of collaborative processes we will attempt to create effective results in public spaces and raise awareness.

5 January 2016, 8:30* – 14:30
*The children can be at ARTos from 7:30 and engage in creative activities with the instructors.
