Summer at Copenhagen Contemporary is full of play, conversation, and creative experiments. Here, there’s room to ask questions, wonder, and explore the art – at any age. Our exhibition hosts are present throughout the halls and always up for a chat about the art, including with our youngest guests.

BørneCCirklen – a creative encounter with art

Every day throughout July at 12:45, we roll out our big, round rug in a new spot in the exhibition halls. Here, an art host invites you to join creative activities inspired by the art on view.

BørneCCirklen is a flexible format where you take part on your own terms. Activities last 20–30 minutes, but you’re welcome to stay for as short or as long as you like. The content changes regularly, so there are always new materials, forms of expression, and methods to explore.

No sign-up needed – just show up, and ask our art hosts on the day where to find the rug.

Open workshop on weekends

On weekends, our workshop is open and free for all visitors. Kids, teens, and adults can dive into artistic activities and explore materials and themes from the current exhibitions. This summer, we’re making homemade string telephones inspired by Camille Henrot’s exhibition Paper Planes. Our workshop facilitators are there to help and guide you along the way.
