Symbols Engraved in Stones

Pera Kids
Ages 7-12

  • August 1, 2023 / 13:30

In this workshop, we are inspired by the T-shaped monoliths from Göbeklitepe and the impressive symbols on them, which are thought to be the oldest obelisks in the world. Transferring the figures they drew on paper by engraving on stones, the children design their sculptures that, when brought together, will form a miniature cult area. 

Capacity: 15 people
Duration: 90 minutes
Fee per workshop: 200 TL

The event will take place at the Pera Museum (face-to-face).
