The Story Factory
A collaborative space of creativity and learning
Kids and adults will have fun asking questions, understanding and constructing a story creatively. They’ll be challenged to do things themselves or with the help of mediators: “What’s the story behind this object from the past? How are these two artefacts related? What can I come up with to solve this general problem?” Association, modification, discussion, making, prototyping—the story will be in their hands.
Important: Due to preventive measures against COVID-19, The Story Factory can only be accessed through the Transport Yourself Through Time activity.
