Our summer workshops for kids are a playful introduction to old crafts and technologies and a really handmade time travel.

On four successive days we offer outdoor workshops with different contents that apply to children from the age of 6 to10 years.

The recent past has witnessed a flowering of scholarship explicitly addressing the way that individuals, communities, and societies responded to the introduction of the pottery wheel.

During our next #FinallyFriday episode we'll be discussing ancient music and soundscapes with guest speakers Lara Comis and Simon Wyatt. Prepare that lemonade and settle back to immerse yourself in the sounds of the past.

The #EAC12 Conference will be an “around the world in 80 experiments” taking place in March 2021 (exact dates to be confirmed). It will start in New Zealand & Australia, turning towards Asia, Africa, Europe, North and South America as the time proceeds. #EAC12 has online lectures as well as presentations by local hotspots in different time zones.
