A morning with cocoa and art transports listeners to the mysterious world of Ancient Egypt. An engaging lecture and workshop turn ancient artifacts into living stories about pharaohs, magic, and the first artists. This lecture-journey is the perfect morning for those who dream of getting to know Ancient Egypt not from a textbook, but in the format of a lively, captivating story. The event begins with a cup of cocoa from the SHROOM SHROOM laboratory - invigorating, aromatic, sugar-free, and free of artificial additives, filled with extracts of mushrooms and herbs. This mood helps participants engage in the lecture with a clear mind and bright emotions. Then comes a journey back 5000 years, to the era before the pyramids. Art historian Natalia Mikhailovskaya will explain how people were buried in pre-dynastic times, why broken pots were found in graves, who the prehistoric gods were, and what magical purpose the ancient Egyptians had when they painted animals.
