The first workshop took place yesterday, March 13, 2011. The second workshop will take place March, 27 2011.
During the 1st workshop 'Watching - Knowing - Transforming' - the aim was learning new ways to explore some painting masterpieces using Art Academy.
During the 1st workshop, the young students tried, captured, and explored what they liked most of the Berardo Museum exhibition and after they had to develop their ideas using Art Academy.

This is a very innovative experience done in art workshops at a Museum to initiate young students in the art of painting.
