Nepalese Prayer Flags
Messages to the Earth
In this creative workshop, children are introduced to the magic of Nepalese prayer flags and the idea that words, images, and colors can carry our wishes out into the world. In Nepalese tradition, prayer flags are hung in nature, where the wind carries their messages — wishes for peace, compassion, and balance between humans and the Earth.
Stopmotion workshop for families.
Step into the magical world of stop-motion animation! In this hands-on workshop, children will learn how to bring their ideas to life by creating their very own mini-movies. Using simple materials such as clay, paper, and toys, participants will explore movement, storytelling, and creativity frame by frame.
What we will do is learn the basics of stop-motion animation and how to create smooth movements. Build simple characters and sets using clay, paper, or everyday objects.
Animate short scenes and see their creations come alive on screen and share their final animations with the group.
