Hello Rembrandt! Interactive Exhibition for Children at Mauritshuis

As part of the Year of Rembrandt celebrations marking the 350th anniversary of the artist's death, the Mauritshuis in The Hague presents Hello Rembrandt!, an interactive exhibition designed for children aged 3 to 11. The exhibition allows young visitors to explore Rembrandt's artistic techniques through play, including dressing up as the painter, experimenting with light puzzles, and touching 3D prints of his works. A special illustrated book featuring Maurits Mouse, the museum's mascot, guides children through Rembrandt's studio. For older children (ages 7-11), workshops are held daily, free of charge, where they can practice painting under the guidance of a museum teacher. The exhibition runs until September 15, 2019. The Mauritshuis houses two of Rembrandt's most famous works: The Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Nicolaes Tulp and a self-portrait from 1669. Other institutions participating in the Year of Rembrandt include the Rijksmuseum, Rembrandt House Museum, Fries Museum, and Museum De Lakenhal.
