Sarah Galmuzzi brings contemporary art to children through videos and workshops
Sarah Galmuzzi, a Neapolitan art historian, launched the project "L'arte contemporanea raccontata ai bambini" in March 2020 during the first lockdown. The initiative aims to make contemporary art accessible to children by simplifying language and using animated videos. Galmuzzi targets children as a "Trojan horse" to also engage adults. The project includes a Facebook page for in-depth content and offline workshops in bookstores, schools, and museums. Upcoming events include the European Researchers' Night in Naples and expanded workshops for preschoolers and adults. Galmuzzi emphasizes curiosity and multiple perspectives over current events.
