WHEN THE GODS VISIT BALI | FRANCISCO CAPELO COLLECTION Museu da Marioneta | Capela

Bali, or «Island of the Gods», is a world of millenary traditions, in which Hinduism, Buddhism, and ancient beliefs from indigenous peoples have been combined over the centuries, thus creating a singular way of living and an original and lively culture. The Puppet Museum is proud to present this exhibition on the daily life and rituals from Bali: jewellery, sculptures, fabrics, shadow puppets, and masks. We acknowledge the support of Museu Nacional de Etnologia for the lent works.GUIDED VISITSGuided visits by the collector Francisco Capelo.Saturday, October 25th, 3 p.m.Saturday, November 8th, 3 p.m.Saturday, November 22nd, 3 p.m.Guided tour | free admittance | pre-booking required: museudamarioneta@egeac.ptFAMILY WORKSHOPSSaturday, November 8th, 10.30 a.m. | Barong, dance and drama masksSaturday, December 13th, 10.30 a.m. | Wayang Kulit, Bali shadow puppetsSaturday, January 10th, 10.30 a.m. | Kamasan paintings, the adventures of prince PanjiFamily workshops | 1 adult + 1 child > 6 years old | €5 | pre-booking required: museudamarioneta@egeac.pt
