Kidz Connect
The final presentation of Kidz Connect took place in Amsterdam and New York at 17 December 2009.
15 scholars in Amsterdam and New York worked together in workshops to set up virtual stands to display their interests, hobbies and lifes.
During the presentation the scholars introduced themselves by showing their virtual stand. They also learned how to make a theatre show together, sharing elements of their own culture on a personal and artistic level with scholars of another country.
Kidz Connect started off in 2008 and is a coproduction of Creative Learning Lab and Zoomlab New York. The project is partly funded by Amsterdams Fonds voor de Kunst.
