The activities do not only feature fun summer break activities and games for the participants, but also promote heritage education within the concept “information and preservation”. The initiative is a partnership between the municipalities of Mariana and Barra Longa, SESI Mariana and the Renova Foundation.

One of the attractions for children will be called “Adventures in Mariana”, which will take them on a tour around different places in town, where they will learn fun facts about the municipality of Mariana, told by storytellers. “Playing with Art & Craft” are archaeological activities, physical activities and games to promote the integration and cooperation of children. The toys used will be produced from recyclable materials.
