(FULLY BOOKED) Roman Spice Art – Student Passport

A Roman adventure at St Paul’s Catacombs!

On Monday 3rd November, from 10:00 am to 11:00 am, Heritage Malta invites children aged 3 to 6 to step into the fascinating world of ancient Rome at St Paul’s Catacombs in Rabat – a site that once formed part of a cemetery just outside the ancient city of Melite.

This hands-on activity will let little explorers discover how Roman artists brought colour to their world. Using natural materials, children will mix their own natural paints and create bright mosaic-inspired artwork, just like the artisans who once decorated Roman homes and tombs.

After their creative adventure, the young participants will enjoy an enchanting experience where they will be able to see, smell, and sample flavours inspired by ancient feasts. As they explore the ingredients and aromas of the past, they will get a delicious taste of Roman culture. Ingredients featured in the activity include cayenne pepper, paprika, curry, turmeric, cinnamon, nutmeg, onion powder, garlic powder, cocoa, and parsley.

Tickets cost €7 and include admission for one accompanying adult. They are available online here and at any Heritage Malta museum or site.

Participants are to bring a bib or apron.
