Wandering Tales

An exhibition full of stories about love, intrigue and courage

Kunstinstallatie Laila en Madjnoen

This show is an ideal family exhibition. It features the most incredible stories about love, intrigue and courage told for young and old alike.

Visit the interactive presentation and take a voyage of discovery exploring the three universal themes of love, intrigue and courage. Take them home and tell them yourself.

Three themes

Love, intrigue and courage are the key themes in Wandering Tales. Stretch out on the four-poster bed and listen in comfort to the Arabian love story of Layla and Majnun. Learn about the clever animals Kantjil and Anansi or put on the headphones and listen to the story of brave Hanuman and the beautiful Sita.

TIP: Join one of the creative activities. Most weekends and throughout the school holidays, children aged 4 to 12 can join in activities at the Wandering Tales corner in the Kartini wing.
