Casa De Colón<br />
Museum and Memory. Objects tell your story. (Morning and<br />
afternoon)<br />
Visit, workshop, educational programme.<br />
In May, the Casa de Colón is presenting a series <strong>of</strong> activities<br />
intended for groups <strong>of</strong> pupils from for from primary and<br />
secondary schools (Los objetos cuentan su historia), for<br />
undergraduate students (El papel de las fuentes históricas),<br />
senior citizens (Paramayo) and the general public (Micro<br />
relatos en Facebook).<br />
Our goal is to actively bring the public closer to the many<br />
artefacts and documents that belong to the museum’s<br />
collection, through the exploration <strong>of</strong> our galleries and the<br />
familiarisation with the Casa de Colón Library. We also invite<br />
people to write stories about an object, a creation proposal<br />
which allow us to share different points <strong>of</strong> view on the<br />
artefacts in the collection.<br />
