The interactive workshops are inspired by the sculptural aspects of Troja Château and the visual motifs from its garden. These include for example decorative terracotta vases that adorn the parapets of the south and east sides of the large terrace, the staircase in the courtyard of the Château, and the stone fountain with figurative motifs. The theme of the educational programme will be the creation of ceramic works. Interactive workshops called Decorating Ceramics will follow up on the art workshops entitled Ceramic Art that took place in May. The fired ceramic clay products will be subsequently treated with paint. During the artistic process, we will focus on different ways of decorating (oxide painting, various glaze painting techniques and engobe painting).
This programme is designed not only for adults and seniors, but also for their children and grandchildren as part of an intergenerational encounter. The workshops are also open to foreign visitors.
This activity is implemented with the financial support of UNHCR (The UN Refugee Agency) and the Ministry of Interior of the Czech Republic.
