Teachers will explore Suna and İnan Kıraç Foundation Kütahya Tiles and Ceramics Collection’s Coffee Break exhibition in the digital environment, learning more about the works of art in a guided tour. Within the scope of the exhibition tour, the teachers examine the various routines, rituals, and relationships centered on coffee, as well as concepts associated with modernism, such as public space, social roles, and economics, through an examination of coffee culture and Kütahya ceramic production, which largely contributed to its development. Participants discover how they can use teacher's guide books prepared in accordance with the curriculum for Pera Museum collection exhibitions, how they can show their students around the exhibitions, and activities for different age groups.
