We would like to invite you to take a part in the educational project ‘Ambassadors. Movie making in the Museum”. The activity, for which recruitment begins on 5 May this year, is addressed to children from multicultural families.
During the project, they will take a part in a series of workshops conducted by museum workers and invited guests, including Julita Charytoniuk, Justyna Godlewska-Kruczkowska, Anush Antonynan and Julita Grabowska. The final will be a jointly produced film, which Bartosz Tryzna will help to make.
During the workshops, participants will learn about the history of Poland and the multicultural Podlasie region. In an unusual way – apart from exhibits and displays, also through singing, traditional games, plays and tastes. Activities will take a place from 22 May to 27 June this year. Participation in the project is free of charge. The number of places is limited, the order of applications is decisive. You can sign up in person at the Museum ticket office (ul. J. Kilińskiego 7) or by e-mail. A scanned copy of the statement completed and signed by the legal guardian should be sent to: tmisarko@mwb.com.pl.
