Children inspired by Bleckner's flowers

A big jungle party. A nest full of eggs – or perhaps birds? Creatures on stilts. The children „read“ Ross Bleckner’s pictures in their own way – with an open mind and a keen eye. They then put their own versions of flowers and blossoms down on paper whilst painting. Juliana Haider, who organised the two children’s programmes under the theme ‘Reading Pictures’ in early July 2024, also brought along a large case full of musical instruments: rattles, drums, a triangle, singing bowls … in short, everything needed for a boisterous final concert to round off the visit to KiS.
