Kids ages 7-12 will take a tour of the museum and observe their excavated pottery samples as well as learn about the history and the role of these muddy pieces of art in our Lebanese heritage. With professional demonstrations as well as historical background of modern and ancient techniques for making Pottery by AUB Prof. Nevil Salha, the pinnacle of the session is when the kids are actually given the opportunity to make their own pieces of art. With knowledge behind them to share with friends and parents, as well as an actual souvenir of their day of exploration, nothing can beat this trip into history.
