How many stories can a simple grain of wheat tell?
Cereals have been part of our lives for thousands of years, from the fields to our tables.
But how much do we really know about their history?
Programme:
14:30 - Pane al pane, libro al libro. Readings and workshop
Before reaching our tables, every grain goes on a long journey!
Together with the Biblioteca della Valle di Ledro, we will follow this journey through a selection of stories.
Then it’s your turn! During the workshop, we will use bamboo and cereals to make small rattles to shake and listen to.
The afternoon will end with a snack featuring Pane delle Palafitte.
For children aged 5 to 8.
The event is part of the Avventure tra le pagine programme promoted by Kid Pass.
Free activity, booking required. Limited places available.
