Description
We invite toddlers and preschool and early school-aged children, along with their accompanying adults, to take part in music-sensory and movement-theatre workshops. Our activities are open to people from various social, cultural, and religious backgrounds. We are committed to creating spaces that are open to diversity, tolerant, and free from prejudice.
The music-sensory workshops are intended for children aged 6 months to 3 years. The workshop combines musical elements—singing, playing instruments—with activities that allow for free and creative experimentation, deepening the child's sensory experience. In the sensory part, we use scenic elements from the 𝐿𝐴𝑆 installation. In the music part, we draw from Edwin E. Gordon’s music learning theory, singing and playing songs for children in various scales and rhythms.
Each session follows a set structure based on the principle of repetition, allowing the youngest participants to quickly feel safe.
Preschool and early school-aged children, along with their close adults, are invited to participate in creative workshops that combine movement, theatre, and art activities. Through simple theatre games, movement improvisations, and manual tasks, we explore topics related to the world around us.

FOREST (LAS) - A Sensory-Sound Installation
FOREST is a performance and sensory-sound installation for children up to 3 years old, inspired by the forest, the most complex, rich, and dynamic land-based ecosystem.
FOREST is a space for touching, experimenting, pulling, turning, stretching, playing, rolling, and squeezing. It responds to the natural need of young children to explore the world, providing opportunities for joint play with parents and other children. It is a space for observation and action.
The story of FOREST introduces us to a certain tree, which, before becoming a real tree, lived as a small seed in the warm, soft, fragrant, and moist earth. The open structure of the performance allows children to smoothly transition from the role of the observer to that of an active participant, discovering the richness of the FOREST with all their senses.
