Museum at Play: Where Fun Meets Finesse!
Now, if you thought museums were just for the stiff and the serious, think again! This Sunday, the 3rd, the National Historical Museum is rolling out a carpet of creativity and laughter as part of their sensational new initiative, Museum at Play. It’s like Moma meets Cirque du Soleil—without the danger of falling chandeliers!
What’s the Plan, Stan?
So what exactly can you expect? Well, imagine a kaleidoscope of learning and laughter! The event is a dazzling collaboration between the National Museums and the Undersecretary of Cultural and Artistic Promotion. Think of it as a cultural buffet where knowledge is served alongside a side of giggles. The aim? To cultivate a space where the grown-ups and the little ones can dive headfirst into the creative arts, armed with nothing but crayons and curiosity.
Musical Treats Await!
As if that wasn’t scrumptious enough, visitors will be serenaded by the enchanting Ceibo Quartet during a concert featuring Mozart’s lovely Divertimento in F major, Beethoven’s sophisticated Quartet No. 18, and, of course, two sultry tangos by Piazzolla. It’s like a musical tango trip without the awkward footsteps! The goal here is not just to listen but to make classical music as captivating as a Netflix documentary! Who knew culture could be so entertaining, right?
Activities Galore!
Now, here comes the fun part! Get ready for a plethora of activities that even your grandma would get excited about. From 2 PM to 5 PM, there will be:
- Plastic Activities: Get those creative juices flowing! Expect painting, drawing on easels, and even some wacky puppet assembly. Who knew making art could be so entertaining?
- Recreational Fun: Games designed to spark social interaction and laughter—for once, it’s not just you embarrassing yourself in front of loved ones!
- Playful Corner: A mini-adventure area brimming with interactive activities and board games. Get ready to unleash your inner child—remember, age is just a number!
- Chess Time: Yes, we’ve got chess! And not just any chess—think giant boards, simultaneous games, and even instruction for those of you who think ‘queen’ is just an exciting Netflix character!
A Grand Finale!
Now, just when you think it can’t get any better, the night concludes with a rip-roaring performance of “SIXTEEN” by the incredible Francis—a one-man show packed with humor and acrobatics. Kind of like a cabaret, but with less singing and more ‘whoa, did you see that?’
Join Us!
So mark your calendars people and make your way over to the National Historical Museum, Defensa 1600, CABA. Let’s be honest, you can either sit at home and binge-watch that same old show for the umpteenth time or come and partake in an event that’s packed with culture, creativity, and absolute craziness!
Don’t miss out on a day that promises to stir your senses and tickle your funny bone!
Este domingo 3, el Museo Histórico Nacional, que opera bajo la dirección del Ministerio de Cultura y la Secretaría de Capital Humano, se complace en anunciar una serie de estaciones de juego como parte de su innovador ciclo Museo en Juego.
Este evento se organiza de manera colaborativa entre los Museos Nacionales y la Subsecretaría de Promoción Cultural y Artística, con el propósito de crear un intercambio de conocimientos y experiencias que fomenten la participación activa del público. Además, los visitantes tendrán la oportunidad de asistir a Serenatas para ensamble de cuerdas, un concierto especial en el que el Cuarteto Ceibo interpretará obras fundamentales como el Divertimento en Fa mayor de Mozart, el Cuarteto No. 18 de Beethoven, así como dos tangos inolvidables de Piazzolla. Esta serie de conciertos está diseñada no sólo para enriquecer culturalmente a la comunidad, sino también para avivar el interés por la música clásica y las presentaciones en vivo, contribuyendo así al fortalecimiento del tejido social.
Al fusionar el entretenimiento con el aprendizaje, se genera un ambiente propicio para despertar la curiosidad y el interés de los públicos de todas las edades. En este entorno, los visitantes podrán experimentar de primera mano la riqueza cultural que los rodea, lo que fomenta un sentido más profundo de pertenencia e identidad comunitaria.
Te estaremos esperando de 2 a 5 p.m. en las estaciones que ofrecerán actividades plásticas (para explorar formas y colores mediante la pintura y el dibujo en caballetes, lo que permite la expresión creativa y la confección de wichis y ojos de marioneta); recreativas (con ejercicios y juegos destinados a promover el bienestar, la socialización y la creatividad); y un rinconcito lúdico (diseñado para el juego y la exploración creativa, mediante actividades interactivas y estimulantes, además de juegos de mesa). También habrá una sección dedicada al ajedrez, que incluye juegos simultáneos, un espacio de enseñanza, mesas para jugar profesionalmente, un ajedrez gigante y un tablero mural.
La jornada culminará a las 5 p.m. con la presentación de “SIXTEEN” por Francis, un espectáculo unipersonal de circo y teatro lleno de humor.
¿Dónde? Museo Histórico Nacional, Defensa 1600, CABA.
