¿De quién es esa sombra? ¿Qué es aquello que se mueve? ¿Quién hay detrás de ese árbol? Pero si son… ¡dos Encantadas! Acaban de salir de su largo sueño de piedra. Pero, ¿quién las habrá embrujado? 

Con el taller «Encantadas: luces y sombras», invitamos a los niños y a las niñas a redescubrir dos figuras olvidadas, pero fascinantes, del folklore valenciano a través de uno de los formatos narrativos más deslumbrantes: el teatro de sombras.

¿Quieres ser artista urbano por un día? ¿Te gustaría participar en la confección de un mural? En L’ETNO todas las formas de expresión son válidas. Los muros que lo conforman nos hablan de dónde venimos, quiénes somos, cómo vivían nuestros abuelos y abuelas o por qué actuamos hoy de una forma u otra. 

¡Ven i participa en la construcción de nuestra cultura formando parte del movimiento del arte de calle!

¿Quieres acompañarnos en un viaje entre pasado y futuro? Dos viajeras en el tiempo, una del año 1924 y otra del 2124, llegan a L’ETNO para enseñarnos la importancia del comercio local y del tracto personalizado y humano.

Con esta visita teatralizada a la ciudad valenciana de L’ETNO aprenderemos la importancia de las acciones del día a día para construir un futuro mejor.

‘Tierra a la vista!’ Una pandilla de piratas está a punto de desembarcar en L'ETNO. Nuestro mar Mediterráneo ha albergado muchas historias de piratas, y nuestra tierra ha dado refugio
también a algún pirata famoso. Conoceremos las historias de muchas tripulaciones de barcos piratas que han navegado nuestro mar.

Ven con vosotros a navegar los mares para descubrir aventuras de piratas, barcos y el lenguaje de
las banderas. Crearemos nuestra propia bandera pirata y lo llevaremos en casa!

Descubre la historia de la prenda de vestir más unisex: el delantal. Desde sus orígenes, diferentes oficios –algunos ya desaparecidos– han hecho uso de todo tipo de delantales, desde los más tradicionales hasta aquellos propios de las modas actuales. 

Visita LʼETNO, aprende y confecciona tu propio delantal en nuestro taller didáctico «Delante, el delantal»

Los duendes, los elfos y los jugueteros reales. Imitaremos la fábrica de Ibi, con su taller de artículos de lata, donde fabricaban pequeños juguetes, y trenes, barcos, aviones, coches... de lata.

Hoy, nosotros también nos convertiremos en fabricantes de juguetes. No usaremos lata, porque nos podríamos cortar, sino cartón, cartulina y madera. Y construiremos un pequeño avión.

In a human library, books are the people who transmit life stories and diverse tales that are never repeated. At L'ETNO Library we exchange paper books for human books that speak in the first person. In a human library you come to listen, to feel and to learn in a supportive and intercultural space because the books will be migrants from different countries who are willing to share their experiences with those who want to listen to them. All the human books are part of the València Acoge collective. 

L'ETNO Library is looking for readers interested in listening and living this experience. The recommended age is for people over 12 years old because the books are not fiction but contain very real stories and, as we all know, reality always surpasses fiction. However, if you have children over 12 at home, don't hesitate to take them with you because it is an enriching experience to activate and open the heart and mind. 
 
The books will change in each session, so you can attend both sessions without repeating readings. And a recommendation: plan your Saturday well and come without rushing, without thinking about shopping before lunch, without thinking about anything other than enjoying a good read.

"Sustainability. Museus km 0" is a collective exhibition that wants to show, and also claim, how some concepts and mechanisms of sustainable management that claim contemporaneity live in the traditional knowledge that ethnological museums keep. Knowing that, many times, today's society has forgotten them and that they can be considered beyond nostalgia and their heritage significance. Repair, reuse, exchange, share and collaborate are not our concepts.

Beyond the content, the exhibition is interesting as a project of joint work between museums, with all that this means. Coordinating an appointed group, covering the different rhythms and reaching consensus among diverse approaches has been a long and laborious process, but it has been more than compensated by the experience we have gained and by the demonstration that we are capable of doing things together.

This joint work has been done within the framework of ETNOXARXA, a project of collaboration and interconnection between local ethnological museums in the province of Valencia.

The second selected experience can be found in the room HORTA I MARJAL: THE IMAGINARIES, where the final part is dedicated to food, specifically to the dish that represents the imaginary for the excellence of our territory, which has already become a global icon: Paella.

L' ETNO has collaborated with the photographer Ricardo Cases in the publication of the second edition of his work "Paellas y Coches", available in the museum shop. Accompanying the publication, we will be able to enjoy this original photographic series in the permanent rooms of the museum for a few months, in dialogue with the story of the permanent exhibition.

Nowadays it is not unusual to see paellas in the most unexpected places. In today's dynamic world, in which haste and lack of time threaten some classic social rituals related to food, Valencians have found solutions. With the good weather, our roads are filled with frying pans travelling in cars on their way to all kinds of homes. This photographic work was born in the restaurant L'Alter in Picassent (Horta Sud) which cooks more than 80 paellas a day to take away during the summer months. Ricardo Cases presents these motorised still lifes, where he explores new visual imaginaries around the representation of paella.
