Art quest “Kids Aren't Spectators”

The contemporary art festival has been taken over by “Grey Screens” — entities that steal colour and emotion. Kids aren't spectators here, but a squad of superheroes ready for a rescue mission: they have just 60 minutes to reboot the art objects and bring back the joy.

How it works

It's a quest story where the child becomes a co-author of the art objects. Collect clues, get paint on your hands, use your imagination, and take control of the exhibition — the quest turns passive contemplation into active creation. The child is the programme's lead artist.

For adults

Take a breather for yourself and make it a treat for your child: while the kids are busy with art, adults can dive into the rest of the festival programme. In the neighbouring rooms on the same days there are workshops for children aged 4 and up: the full children’s programme. The quest runs at the same time as the workshops — choose sessions that do not overlap.

For parents

An adult registers — say how many children are coming and how old they are. Come 10 minutes early: the quest starts exactly at the time on the ticket. Clothes you don’t mind getting paint on are welcome.

Tired of art being “quiet and proper”? At a contemporary art festival, we allow noise.
