To accompany the exhibition Edgelanders at de Appel, visual artist and human rights activist Elke Uitentuis will conduct a workshop for parents and children. This creative workshop will introduce topics such as human rights, activism and solidarity through writing, coloring and drawing.
The workshop ties in with the exhibition in which artists Ehsan Fardjadniya and Raul Balai plan to start a tribunal against the city of Amsterdam. They demand that the city comply with its ethical and legal obligations. What can you do if human rights are not respected? What are your rights as a non-adult? And how can you as a child or teenager advocate for the rights of other children? During this workshop you will learn how to express yourself creatively, and how to make your voice heard.
This is an open workshop, on a free walk-in basis. Registration is not required. The workshop is for parents and children and is available in both Dutch and English. Recommended age: 6 years and up.
