Looking for a fun and educational activity for your child this summer? Look no further than MAP, a newly opened museum at the heart of Bengaluru. Join us for Summer at MAP, an annual summer programme for kids. This year, we explore the exciting world of S.T.E.A.M [Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, Mathematics] through six hands-on workshops and learning experiences.
Monoprinting is a unique and versatile printmaking technique that allows you to create one-of-a-kind works of art. In this workshop, participants will experiment with the basics of monoprinting, including how to prepare a printing surface, mix inks, and use a printing press – and of course, make their own!
All materials will be provided, however participants will be expected to bring their own lunch.
