Imagine walking from the exhibition into a workshop where you dream up how to become famous and see your name on a street plaque. Children sketch bright ideas, cut colorful collage pieces, and stick them onto a cardboard plaque.

The result is a small ‘success panel’ to hang on a wall and a lively collage celebrating their future fame.
