KUFTI DAY AT THE ZOO on September 14

The big KUFTI day at Frankfurt Zoo offers a great opportunity to get to know several offers and leisure locations at once. On Sunday, September 14, various museums with free hands-on activities await you at Frankfurt Zoo. With KUFTI, admission to the zoo is of course also free as usual.

The KUFTI will be on site with an action stand from 10 am to 6 pm. Children can use an opinion barometer to discuss public space together and then design buttons and posters with their ideas and points of view. In the new board game “Auf ins Museum!” you can play your way through the museum from the entrance, through the exhibition to the final cake in the museum café. Of course, you can also apply for your own KUFTIs here and we provide information about free and low-cost cultural activities for children, young people and families.

Also included:

DZ Bank Art Foundation from 10 a.m. – 12 p.m.: Light and Color

What happens when colors and shapes are superimposed, reflected and form new patterns? And how does cameraless photography work? We create our own kaleidoscopes and take photographs with the help of sunlight.

German Architecture Museum (DAM) from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m.: Lebens-RAUM – Animal Mini Worlds

Children design creative mini-worlds here. With imagination and craft materials, small rooms are created that artistically represent the natural habitat of real zoo animals.

Museum of Communication Frankfurt from 11 a.m. – 2 p.m.: Print and ink workshop

How did people in the Middle Ages actually print books or write letters? On KUFTI Day, you can learn about letterpress printing and print your favorite animals on postcards. You can also write your name with an old quill and inkwell.

BiMu Bible House Experience Museum from 11 a.m. – 4 p.m.: Invitation to the storytelling tent

“Blessed is he who has found a friend and who may speak to ears that hear.”

Here you can find out how people lived when the Bible stories were written. In the BiMu, this life is illustrated by original finds and hands-on elements. Some of these can be tried out at the stand.

Archaeological Museum Frankfurt 1.30 – 5 p.m.

Here you can experience the Stone Age up close.

Young Museum Frankfurt from 2 – 5 p.m.: Fur, feathers, scales

Here you can print your own favorite zoo animal in postcard format at the workshop table. It is drawn on milk carton material, structures are carved and printed in color on a small gravure press.

We look forward to seeing you!
