About
Discover Caravaggio will explore the theme of people sharing a meal while gathered around a table, drawing inspiration from the 'The Supper at Emmaus' (1601). It's something that all ages can relate to – a universal experience. Children can create a 3D version of the table in our felt 'supper party' area where they can role play and dress up. They can also create a 2D version of the painting on our felt art wall – a playful, sensory place where families can engage with these incredible paintings.
Examine still-life elements of 'The Supper at Emmaus' paintings and create your own versions. Make gestural drawings using poseable wooden hands to create shadow drawings. Think like Caravaggio and consider how light and shade can play a part in creative expression.
Plus, you'll see the winning artworks from our 'Creative Classroom Award' displayed in Discover Art!
