Didactic Birthday Parties

At Casa da Arquitectura, birthday parties are special.

Aimed at the most curious children, these activities start from the Programme's workshops (their themes and materials) and are then customised for each birthday boy or girl, taking their tastes and characteristics into account.

Guided by a specialised multidisciplinary team, these activities aim to provide moments of leisure, discovery, play, which result in memorable constructions and discoveries, promoting teamwork and sharing the pleasure of creating.

Here, we talk about architecture, propose new ways of looking and challenge everyone to experiment, create and explore together.

The birthday boy or girl is our guest of honour in an adventure of mini-architects jumping between art, botany, architecture, drawing and so many other things we can invent!


We have prepared three special activities: 

Build with air
If there is something simple and wonderful, it is bubbles! Those fragile structures that defy the laws of gravity and that disappear without a trace in the blink of an eye have been studied and applied in architecture. In this workshop we will discover various architectural principles and hidden geometries while building with air!
 
Animal Architecture
This workshop offers participants the opportunity to explore the incredible structures created by animals and challenges them to develop an architectural project using adaptations and natural materials, highlighting the importance of creating more sustainable and effective solutions.
 
The body as a drawing tool
This activity aims to provide a moment of leisure, discovery, play and exploration through drawing with the body on large format paper.
We propose new ways of looking at space and challenge participants to experiment, create and explore together. Through principles of performative art and body activation, this workshop proposes the expansion of the drawing action, which traditionally begins with the fingers, hand, arm and shoulder, to the rest of the body and the surrounding space.
 
 
*All workshops are adapted to each age group.
