Education for children and adolescents

We hold classes for organised school groups.

Our offer contains both seasonal and all-year lessons. During the classes, children will use props of traditional culture (old everyday objects, gifts of nature used in the old days, e.g. used for play, folk medicine, etc.). But also utilise cultural texts (games, songs, proverbs, dialect texts) as part of a scheduled programme that activates all participants, taking place in selected spaces of the Ethnocentre.

We offer:

• seasonal lessons: in December and January, we invite you to show you how the Christmas and New Year traditions of Podkarpacie look. In March and April, we offer lessons on the spring and Easter customs of our area.
• all-year lessons in a selected variant, combined with a tour around the Ethnocentre. A great chance to use old props and listen to cultural texts (legends, songs).
