As part of Valletta art gallery Blitz’s current exhibition Gravity, children aged between 6-12 are invited to create their own visual story by using humanlike and natural elements, real or fictional characters as well as text if they feel like. Led by visual artist and art educator Kristina Borg, this is an exercise in understanding and treasuring diversity, as well as finding an artistic way of expressing it. Each story can include fantasy elements and evolve into representational or abstract form. While participation is free and all materials are provided, booking is essential as places are limited.
