Beseder Gallery

Date: 1.11. od 10:00 - 15:00 hod.

Beseder Gallery & Puppetry Center CHODÍCÍ DŘEVO ("walking wood") cordially invite you to a family puppet workshop inspired by the exhibition Anatomy of the Wilderness.

LIVING WALKING PICTURES THAT CAN MAKE THE SOUNDS OF THE WILD
...or how to bring Jiří David's paintings to life and teach them to rap – as only Pavel Jestřáb can?

Do you want to:
- give free rein to your imagination and creativity?
- experience the exhibition differently – in depth, firsthand?
- experience creative bliss together with family or friends?
- create something you've never done before?
- take home a living, walking picture – a puppet creature that can make the sounds of the wilderness?

WHAT WILL WE DO?
Drill, cut, hammer nails, wire, paint in space.
But above all, bring things to life – not only pictures and wood, but also your own imagination... and perhaps even your soul.
