RELAY STORIES, GIVING VOICE TO ARCHIVE PHOTOS
24.10
Workshop curated by Eleonora Lombardi
10:15–11:30 • 15:15–16:30Villa Ghirlanda Silva Park, Cinisello Balsamo Release stories is an intergenerational workshop that uses archival photography as a narrative device to activate creative writing in children and bring adults closer to the practice of storytelling. Set in the historical park of Villa Ghirlanda Silva in Cinisello Balsamo, the project transforms the historical images of the city, of the Museum of Contemporary Photography, into visual triggers to build a collective story: each parent-child group elaborates a part of the story, with characters, context, action,time — ending in a performative reading. The format weaves graphic-visual tools into play and teaching, so children discover the history of the place and adults recover their imagination and their memories. The aim is to make graphic design and photography accessible to the youngest, and to strengthen the bond between community and cultural heritage, turning the park into a space of relation, memory and collective imagination. The workshop will be held in two shifts: one at 10:15 and the other at 15:15. It will be possible to participate in only one round. Email registrations to eleonoraprogettarecultura@gmail.com
