This week’s motto: People!
This week is all about us humans.
What makes us who we are? What do we do? What do we leave behind?
Every day there is an exciting program in a different museum:
Archaeological Museum / Institute for City History: Life in the monastery – monks, donors and secrets
Who used to live in a monastery? Discover the life of the monks, their rules and everyday life behind the monastery walls. Find out more about the founders who made this building possible and immerse yourself in a bygone world! Come with us on an exciting journey into history.
Bibelhaus Erlebnismuseum: Jerusalem, the eternal city
How did the children live in Jerusalem 2000 years ago? What did they eat? Did they go to school? What did they play? What music did they listen to? And what does all this have to do with the book city of Frankfurt? In search of answers, the BiMu is explored together.
Deutsches Architekturmuseum: HAUPTsache Stadt – Man as part of the city
In this creative workshop, children design their own hats inspired by Frankfurt’s buildings. They playfully discover architecture and the city’s history while creating their own work of art using various materials. They become part of the skyline themselves!
DFF – Deutsches Filminstitut & Filmmuseum: Pixilation – People are the animated characters in our film
Is it possible to fly on a broom or glide across the floor on invisible roller skates? Can furniture dance around you? In a stop-motion film, yes! We shoot a short animated film with people, creating a crazy world.
Dommuseum Frankfurt: More than a man can create – The Frankfurt Cathedral Tower
328 steps up to the viewing platform. How did people manage to build the tower over 600 years ago? Who came up with the decorations? And how many people were needed to ring the bells? The cathedral tower is teamwork – no one can do it alone.
Junges Museum Frankfurt: Children have rights!
There is a lot to find out about rights and their importance in the exhibition. Equipped with a passport, the group travels through the labyrinth of children’s rights, demonstrates, listens to stories about protection on the run, makes up poems and discovers their own relationship to children’s rights in games. Finally, they vote and discuss in the children’s parliament and produce the most important right as a button.
MUSEUM MMK FOR MODERN ART: The human trace
What traces do people leave on the earth? What effects do our lives have on each other? Who receives the last signals from electronic waste or where is money turned into air? We experiment with clay and plaster and try our hand at making direct traces of our present.
MGGU – Museum Giersch der Goethe-Universität: On a journey of discovery at the MGGU: The world of plants
Come with us on a journey of discovery! We meet plants such as algae, flowers and trees that need clean water and light. In the “Fixing Futures” exhibition, artists and scientists present their visions of the future. Afterwards, we will create our own travel pictures in the museum garden.
Jewish Museum / Museum Judengasse Frankfurt: Man and Animal. Of pelican & squirrel
The printing workshop “Von Pelikan & Eichhörnchen” will take you on a creative journey of discovery where you will learn a lot about the lives of people in Frankfurt’s Judengasse. In the workshop, you will dive deep into fairytale stories. These stories will give rise to colorful visual worlds that you can then print on postcards and take home with you.
Weltkulturen Museum: How pictures speak
Do pictures help us to remember? How is history passed on? Together we will immerse ourselves in the impressive images and myths of the Indigenous peoples of Northwest Australia. We will then listen to a mythical children’s story and create our own illustrations using printing techniques.
