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 />
