About

A kids' opening for Museum Rietberg's exhibition on Amazonia, which shows the region as one of South America's most diverse cultural areas, more than a rainforest and a giant river system. Kids look at rock paintings up to 12,000 years old and the beings, animals and symbols in them. Then they design their own stick-on tattoos from those motifs. It suits curious kids who like to draw and make things.
