Books Alive! Temple of Secret Messages

Step into the spaces created by artist Barbara Kruger, where words hide secret messages.
In her exhibition, you’ll search for words that join together to form coded messages, an endless game that sparks curiosity and emotion. Hunt for key terms and uncover their hidden meanings.
Finally, we’ll create a collective sculptural and architectural installation, where letters, words (both real and made-up) and encrypted messages take center stage.
This activity playfully blends different creative languages (literature and visual arts) while weaving English into the process in a natural, hands-on way.

Family Yoga

Aimed at the whole family, these classes use art and yoga poses to play, share, and connect.
This month, let Sky Hopinka’s work inspire a journey into the cultures of Native North America—deeply connected to forests, rivers, animals, identity, and community. Guided by the spirit of respect for all living beings, a value at the heart of Indigenous traditions, we’ll explore nature in new ways. Through yoga, you’ll get to become the wind, leap like animals, stretch tall like trees, and even shine like the sun and moon. This activity will give the little ones, and the grown-ups with them, the chance to connect to their creative essence as they explore conscious movement.

Step into a world where drawing and movement come alive together. In this session, you’ll be creating art with your whole body, not just drawing with your hand.
Jump, roll, dance, and laugh as you see how your body shapes the marks you make—and how your marks can inspire your movement. Warning! This playful session is likely to spark lots of excitement and laughter!  No drawing or dancing skills? No problem!  You can join solo, with a friend, or as a family.. Inspired by the research of Simona Lobefaro and Alessandro Lumare (Segni Mossi), this session is all about exploring the joyful connection between movement and drawing.

Nature and art. Rising landscape (Ages: 3-5)

In celebration of World Nature Protection Day (October 18), we invite you to explore sustainability and environmental care in a creative, collective way.
Draw inspiration from the shapes and patterns of natural materials—earth, straw, wool, branches, leaves, seeds—and discover their potential as sources of both knowledge and creativity.  Explore their textures, scents, and colors. Use these materials to create your own individual landscape composition, which will then be combined with others to form diverse, suggestive collective panoramas, inspired by the way African artist El Anatsui worked on his monumental piece Rising Sea. Finally, the resulting artworks will be brought outdoors, where we will create large-scale collective interventions, transforming the Museum’s outdoor spaces into a shared artistic landscape.

Drawing course: Learning to draw. From the inside out: Draw and move! (Saturday)

At this fun, playful session, we will draw and move as we learn more about our body and the space around us!
By drawing and moving, we will explore how our body feels inside and how it connects with everything around us. What will we do?
<ul>
<li>We will dive into our inner world, drawing emotions, dreams, and our imaginings.</li>
<li>By turning our attention inward, our drawing will be guided by the rhythms and sounds of our breath and our heartbeat.</li>
<li>We will play around with different postures and gestures, using the movement of our body as a means of reflection and exploration, discovering more about the world around us by observing objects, spaces, and other people before we draw them.</li>
</ul>
Program 

October 18: Drawing our inner selves 
How do we feel inside our body? Could you draw it? Close your eyes to feel your breath and listen to your heartbeat.
October 25: A map of the body 
Draw a 'map' to explore the inside of the human body. We will learn to locate all our major organs, as well as our skeleton and circulatory system.
November 1: Rhythm and graphic expression 
Let the rhythm guide your hand: How fast or slow do you draw each line? Explore how sound and rhythm influence movement and artistic expression, developing a deeper connection between hearing, emotion, and gesture.
November 8:  The skin and the dress 
The skin is not just something that covers the body, allowing us to feel the warmth of the sun or the cold of sea water. It is also a surface where people, animals, and even buildings express themselves, protect themselves, or blend in. Why do tigers have stripes? What is the 'skin' of the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao like?
November 15: Mask workshop 
Masks have been used all over the world for a very long time: at festivals, in theater productions, in dances, in rituals... Sometimes for play, other times for protection or for storytelling. Masks have a special power: when we put them on, something shifts. Create your own mask and discover how it makes you feel.
November 22: Unusual journeys 
Experience your surroundings in a whole new way, using your body as a tool to explore the space around you. As if on a real adventure, we’ll pay close attention to distances, sounds, and textures—examining corridors, thresholds, passageways, and ceilings. Could you draw the journeys you make?

Labyrinths (Ages: 6–10)

A labyrinth is a messy, challenging space where we need to use our imagination. They are usually associated with multiple paths, adventure, and having fun. It is often difficult to find our way out of a maze.
The sculptures that make up Richard Serra’s series The Matter of Time might resemble labyrinths. They are magical structures that morph into something different when we enter them and find our way around them, giving us a feeling of space in motion.  In this activity, we will explore Serra’s sculptures using at least three of our senses: sight, hearing, and touch. Keeping our minds open, we will let them surprise us with every step we take.  Then, drawing inspiration from Serra’s creations as well as from classical designs like the Labyrinth in Crete, built to hold the Minotaur in, we will make our own mazes for more surprises and fun.
