At the Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venice, collateral activities for the exhibition 'Arp's Nature' continue, including the children's workshop 'Arp Attack.

The initiatives related to the exhibition The Nature of Arp continue at the Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venice: several activities are offered by the museum for adults and also for children. The latter are the great protagonists of the Arp Attack workshop: the little ones are offered the chance to familiarize themselves with the works of the great sculptor Hans Arp, to whom the exhibition is dedicated, with a free workshop (on July 14 at 3 p.m.) that will allow them to become young demiurges in order to create a “beautiful sculpture, daughter of our mind and our ingenuity” (so in the presentation of the activity).

Then there are Kids Days for children, held at the museum and open to young visitors aged 4 to 10: participation is free but reservations are required (just call 041 2405444).

On the other hand, for all visitors, young or old, free guided tours of the exhibition continue daily at 3 p.m. to discover the works of one of the most influential figures of the 20th century(you can read a detailed in-depth look at the figure of Hans Arp at this link). The tour, as mentioned, is free, is included in the entrance fee, and is held in Italian or English depending on availability. No reservation is needed in this case.

Please note that the exhibition can be visited until September 2, 2019. For all information on side activities you can log on to the website of the Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venice.
