childhood, the time to be a child, the right to now.

THE EXHIBITION
The traveling exhibition from Reggio Emilia, The Hundred Languages
of Children provides a beautiful and intriguing display of children’s
theories illustrated through words, paintings, drawings and sculptures
that make visible their potential as scientists, inventors, authors and
artists. The exhibition demonstrates that children are endlessly curious
and full of wonder and joy as they actively make connections and attempt
to understand their world.
