Experience creativity, community, and culture this summer with Heritage Malta’s Biennale Edition of the Student Summer Programme!
Running from the 7th of July till the 19th of September 2025, our exciting series of workshops offers young explorers, aged 6-13, three months of fun and learning.
We will visit some of Malta and Gozo’s most iconic historical sites and museums – including the Grand Master’s Palace and MUŻA in Valletta, Birgu’s Inquisitor’s Palace, and mesmerising prehistoric sites.
Under the guidance of our enthusiastic museum educators, children will not only learn new artistic techniques but also explore important themes such as environmental responsibility, historical heritage, and collective community values. Activities are designed to foster creativity, critical thinking, and teamwork, all while encouraging reflection on the role each of us plays in shaping a sustainable and culturally rich future.
