The Telecommunications Museum, as a multifaceted cultural institution of informal education, carries out educational programs that express its policy of extroversion and its dynamic relationship with society.
The contact of young people with both the history and the modern applications of technology strengthens our belief that technology is the necessary vehicle for the professional and social integration of young people in modern society. With the power of technology, it opens a creative dialogue between yesterday and today, bringing the history of telecommunications closer to modern telecommunications developments.
Programs are held five times a week for school groups and two Sundays each month for individual visitors and families.
More specifically, the educational programs for school groups include:
Art workshops
Technological laboratories
Environmental programs
Internet safety programs
Theatrical show
Family programs include activities for children and parents. For the 2017-2018 season, nine different family programs were planned and implemented.
For example, we mention the following:
"Access all areas! Get into the role! » : An exciting role-playing game using technology! Children become museologists, archivists and conservators and learn from Museum professionals about documenting, preserving, classifying and storing objects. An experiential experience that brings children closer to modern museum reality. "Virtual & Augmented Reality Museum Labs": Through virtual and augmented reality applications, children are teleported in space and time, and are photographed in front of a special photobooth.
"Magical Museum Tours": Through original and inventive actions, visitors experience the magic of the Museum's exhibits up close. Acrobatic and juggling skills of real jugglers, tricks with fluorescent juggling objects, formation of telecommunication codes with magical techniques introduce visitors to the magical world of communication
"Engraving with inspiration...from the hands of children!": Telephones, inventions and historical moments of communication become inspiration for engravings with unprecedented techniques! Inside the specially designed engraving workshop, expert engravers explain and show visitors the original technique of engraving sugar and ink to print their own artwork at the end
