Workshop at Museum of Prehistoric Anthropology – Journey to the Centre of Prehistory

Introduction

Workshop: "Creating an Imaginary Tale"

  • Date: Tuesday 15 April 2025
  • Time: From 2.00 pm to 4.00 pm
  • Age: 8+
  • Price: €20 

On Tuesday 15 April 2025, from 2pm to 4pm, Monaco Museum of Prehistoric Anthropology is offering a creative workshop aimed at children aged 8 and up. During this creative workshop, participants will be able to create their own story by following simple steps and clear explanations. 

Children will discover the key steps involved in building a thrilling story, from creating characters to developing a setting and a plot. Through fun, creative activities, they will learn how to give their story a structure, how to come up with plot twists and how to bring their characters to life.


The children will also have the chance to take part in a workshop led by an archaeologist, who will talk to them about their work on archaeological sites and in laboratories. The children will learn how to identify, study and preserve items that are found to improve our understanding of history.

The workshop promises to be rich in imagination and discoveries, allowing children to develop their creativity and storytelling skills, while learning about history and the habits of early humans. A perfect afternoon for encouraging children’s passion for stories, nurturing their creativity and sparking their interest in the history of humanity.

At the end of our creative workshops, the children will have the chance to take part in an Easter egg hunt in the museum gardens. They will hunt for coloured eggs hidden all over the place, in an adventure full of surprises and laughter. Each egg that is found will result in a small prize, offering the young explorers a fun and festive conclusion to their day – a relaxing and enjoyable way to round off our educational activities in style!

Faced with the unknown (illness, death, tomorrow), rituals are a way of organising chaos, of "knowing what to do", of dispelling fear and confronting trials. How does one move from the profane to the sacred? What meaning is given to everyday gestures? What role do shamans, healers and priestesses play? What objects serve as mediators in these exchanges between humans and gods: fetishes, masks, cult statues? What is the diversity of these practices, and what are their common threads? What is the history of magical rituals, their foundation, their raison d'être? How can we understand the precise meaning of gestures that are repeated and passed down from generation to generation, from master to initiate, from father to son?

This richly illustrated, educational and interactive exhibition tells the story of the birth and evolution of our species, Homo sapiens, and of the entire human lineage known as Hominins.It traces the journey, through long migrations, of human beings who invented tools and mastered fire, before leaving the African cradle of humanity and eventually settling, for the past approximately 10,000 years, across the entire planet. These fascinating and open-ended questions are explored in this exhibition, which is further enriched by multimedia content (interviews, 3D views of prehistoric objects, quizzes, games, etc.).Like all exhibitions by Synops editions, From Toumaï to Sapiens is aimed at a wide audience and shares scientific knowledge in an educational and engaging way. Passionate about sharing knowledge, Synops editions design exhibitions that are both educational, interactive and immersive, intended for museums, media libraries, associations, science and technology culture centres and all types of public venues.

La Direction des Affaires Culturelles vous présente l'exposition des photographies des 15 jeunes lauréats du concours Photo « Patrimoine en danger » . Cette exposition est à découvrir du 9 avril au 4 octobre 2026 sur les grilles des Jardins Saint-Martin au Rocher. Cette édition 2026 du concours dédié aux 11-25 ans, avait pour thème « Patrimoine en danger » à l’instar de l’édition 2026 des Journées européennes du Patrimoine.Ce thème évoque les menaces qui pèsent sur notre patrimoine culturel matériel (ex : objets d’art et mobilier, architecture, œuvres écrites et graphiques, paysages construits, jardins, sites archéologiques, etc.) et immatériel (ex : traditions, langue, arts du spectacle, rituels et évènements festifs, artisanat traditionnel, gastronomie, etc.) telles que le changement climatique, les catastrophes naturelles, les évolutions sociétales, l’urbanisation ou encore le tourisme de masse. Ce thème a notamment permis à l’ensemble des candidats de réfléchir à ce que représente le patrimoine culturel et ainsi s’interroger sur les solutions pour le préserver.Le concours a permis de révéler de très beaux points de vue de la jeunesse sur le patrimoine monégasque.Le public est invité à découvrir cette exposition en accès libre.
