The Traveling Workshop transforms every corner of the museum and botanical garden into a space for artistic exploration, engaging with diverse artistic languages. Each week, the workshop travels to a new location, inviting participants to explore how different spaces help us discover new ways to create and experience art and nature.

Check out the Traveling Workshop program for November.

• In the Light of This World – Contemporary Collections, by Isadora Godoy ↓

  Inspired by À la Lumière des Deux Mondes (In the Light of Two Worlds; 2005), by Tunga, this workshop invites participants to create symbolic representations of the times we live in. It encourages critical analysis on the representation of contemporary societies, the production and preservation of symbols and narratives, and the expression of the clash of worlds through art.

  November 1 and 2, at 2:00 p.m.

  Capacity: 25 participants | Duration: 2 hours | Location: Galeria Psicoativa Tunga [G21] | Registration: On-site starting at 2:00 p.m. | Age Rating: All ages

• Weavers of Time, by Clara Duarte ↓

  This workshop invites participants to reflect on how we record memories and stories. Using thread, knots, and beads, participants will create their own tactile narratives, which will be gathered into a shared hanging installation. Together, these gestures form a collective archive—one that reimagines time not as a straight line, but as a web. Drawing inspiration from Latin American artistic practices, the workshop calls on participants to construct new narratives about the times we live in.

  November 8 and 9, at 2:00 p.m.

  Capacity: 25 participants | Duration: 2 hours | Location: Galeria Lago [G6] | Registration: On-site starting at 2:00 p.m. | Age Rating: All ages

• Conjuring Flags, by Clara Duarte, Isadora Godoy and Laura de Matos ↓

  This workshop seeks to free flags from their fixed meanings and reimagine them with new colors, words, and ways of existing. Amid memories, emotions, and collective creations, a space opens for creating new ways of belonging and narrating the world. Inspired by the gesture of Esconjuro (Conjure) by Paulo Nazareth, the workshop brings up to date discussions about nationhood, resistance, and ancestry.

  November 15 and 16, at 2:00 p.m.

  Capacity: 25 participants | Duration: 2 hours | Location: Galeria Praça [G3]|Registration: On-site starting at 2:00 p.m. | Age Rating: All ages

• Resignation Letter, with Jandir Jr. (Rio de Janeiro) ↓

  On Black Awareness Day, the Traveling Workshop invites participants to reflect on the act of breaking away from social and personal structures through writing and artistic practice. Each participant is encouraged to write, draw, or physically alter a resignation letter—expressing their departure from relationships, patterns, or responsibilities they wish to leave behind.

  November 20, at 2:00 p.m.

  Capacity: 25 participants | Duration: 2 hours | Location: Tamboril [B1] | Registration: On-site starting at 2:00 p.m. | Age Rating: All ages

• Cartography of Sounds [Calel Remix], by Laura de Matos and Victória Brandão ↓

  This workshop invites participants to listen to and record the sounds that inhabit Inhotim, revealing them as expressions of different experiences of the place. Inspired by the opening of the Edgar Calel’s exhibition—currently on view at Inhotim—the workshop encourages participants to perceive sound as a medium for creation and storytelling, connecting listening, memory, and artistic practice.

  November 22, 23, and 29, at 2:00 p.m.
