Miss Dot and Mr Point are back in PLATO! Workshop for children (1,5–2,5 years) with Hana and Tomáš Volkmer.

We offer the youngest artists a huge drawing area, many kinds of brushes, rollers, colourful adhesive tapes and large foam stamps, non-toxic paints and the possibility of mixing them boldly. We can also paint with our little hands and feet.

The workshop is accompanied by two crayons – Miss Dot and Mr Point. The essence of the workshop is the joy brought about by play, exploration of what is possible to do with colours and the joint creation of the youngest creators and their parents in a large space. The workshop is made up of an introductory, movement, instructional, art, relaxation, and story time bloc. The authors are primarily inspired by the 5 000 m2 of PLATO. Come with your children to create in a focused and calm environment and use the opportunity to meet, maybe even get to know each other. All of us can create!
