With the summer vacation approaching, are parents still struggling with how to make their children have a fun and meaningful vacation? Located in Xuhui Binjiang, the Star Art Museum Art Train is becoming a summer paradise in the hearts of children with a unique public welfare activity. On the afternoon of June 29th, a group of kindergarten children gathered here to not only participate in the creative handicrafts, but also to appreciate the art treasures in the museum up close, starting a wonderful journey integrating artistic exploration and happy time.
At the event, children from Boya Huitong Kindergarten were immersed in a unique creative splicing activity. Different from the traditional building blocks, the materials used here are like colorful mosaic fragments, and the children unconsciously come into contact with the charm of mosaic art while playing.
This art form originates from the pixel art genre, through the colorful "pixels", children not only exercise their hands-on ability, but also absorb the nutrients of art imperceptibly. The children who are in kindergarten are putting together leaf patterns, and she shared with reporters: "This kind of mosaic is not the same as the building blocks used to play. This model is one by one, which is especially fun! ”
According to reports, this art train itself is a living history. It was once a real train car that shuttled on the railroad tracks a hundred years ago, and now, under the careful planning of the Star Art Museum, it has reappeared in the world with a new attitude, the "Art Train", becoming a bridge between the past and the future. The green carriage is no longer the old time, but a mobile classroom carrying the dreams and exploration spirit of teenagers in the new era.
From 2024, the Art Train Project will officially become an important part of Xuhui District's "Social Aesthetic Education". It not only provides children with a rich and interactive curriculum, but also creates a warm and inspiring learning environment through interdisciplinary art courses, workshops and art studies.
In addition to the handicraft experience, the art train also takes children into the interior of the museum to see the master's works of art up close. With the help of advanced VR technology, the children seem to travel through time and space to have a heart-to-heart dialogue with the great artists. Kindergarten teacher Yang Jie said: "Children may rarely be able to see the green train in the past, but this time I can participate in the handicraft in it, which is quite happy!" The masterpieces in the Star Art Museum can also inspire them in their future painting or color. ”
Zhang Zhihui, head of the public education brand of Star Art Museum, said that in order to welcome the summer vacation, the Art Train will not only hold activities such as playing clubs and experiencing a one-day "Little Train Captain" within two months, but will also extend the opening hours and increase the number of open sessions, so that children can feel the joy and fulfillment of the holiday. The specific summer activity arrangements can be viewed and reserved through the "Star Art Museum" official account or mini program.
