A "Toy for the City" master class for children and their parents will be held on July 4, at 14:00 at the National Centre RUSSIA. This master class is a part of the educational program of "The Birth of Scale" exposition.

There, the attendees together with the teachers of the "ArchiLAB" student center will think of how one of the childhood toys, a rocking horse, might look like in an urban space. At the master class, children and adults will try to imagine how one could deal with such an object: to go down a slide, to play on a swing set, to buy ice cream, and more.

The master class will be led by Elena Ganushkina, an architect, a member of the Union of Moscow Architects, Associate Professor of the Department of Urban Planning at Moscow State University of Geodesy and Cartography, Associate Professor of Residential Buildings at Moscow Architectural Institure, as well as Alexandra Pudokhina, Yulia Kholova and Ekaterina Egunova, third-year students of the Department of Architecture at Moscow State University of Geodesy and Cartography.

The participants of the practical lesson will learn to work with color, understand the concept of contrast of color and shapes, and consider how to integrate a small architectural form into the landscape of a city.

You can attend the events free of charge by pre-registration on the website: russia.ru. Up-to-date information about other events can be found in the "Events" section.

You can learn more about the Russian architecture from the cycle of educational lectures of the National Centre RUSSIA.
