What do kids love most? From our experience role playing is definitely at the top of the list! For this workshop we decided to create beautiful masks, together with the kids, using recycled materials. We prepared some pre-cut forms for them and accumulated a lot of everyday objects (plastic bottles, cardboard boxes etc).
On the second day of the workshop you could already see the kids running around with their masks on – fantasy characters popping up all over the festival in the form of a “DreamHeads parade”.
The experience of being in Lebanon was really intense. The kids had lots of fun and we created a couple of very inspiring masks, that were documented here. 
Ultimately, it doesn’t matter if you work with kids in Germany, Brazil or Lebanon: they are all happy to create things! And or us, it’s always a great exchange of ideas and it motivates us to create more inspiring things.
Thank you Dominique Chouchani for the invitation and the warm hospitality during our stay in Lebanon! A big thank you also goes out to the whole Team at Matisse for all of their kind support. It was a pleasure working with you!
