Description

This event presents an art project created in collaboration with two Salzburg elementary schools. Children selected typical work objects such as stethoscopes or hard hats and painted scenes in which people use them in their work. The resulting images are analyzed during a panel discussion to understand what role models children associate with professions.

The discussion explores how traditional role models emerge and which societal expectations shape our perceptions. Experts discuss ways to overcome clichés so that children can discover their abilities free from gender stereotypes. Following the discussion, workshops with the children take place, where they question and reinterpret pre-made patterns.

The event concludes with the opening of an exhibition of selected children's artworks in the foyer of the AK Salzburg. With drinks and canapés, there is an opportunity for exchange and reflection.
