Organized by:
1. Free Prometheus! (in Greek)
EDUCATION PROGRAM FOR SCHOOLS
3rd and 4th grade of Primary School
Prometheus stole fire from gods and gave it to humans. Zeus got angry with this action and ordered Hephaestus to chain Prometheus on top of Mount Caucasus. Many centuries later Heracles climbed Caucasus and freed Prometheus. In the CAMU program, the kids will learn the Promethean myth and search for the main heroes on the vases and statuettes of the collection. Then, they will visit the “Prometheus Unbound” exhibition, where they will represent the liberation of Prometheus. At the end they will create their one lanterns, where they will pain their own version of the myth.
