The Kalandraka space in Santa María street, 16 of the Barrio de las Letras in Madrid, which offers an interesting meeting point with authors and illustrators. In Kalandraka We can attend talks, perform art workshops, go to book presentations, participate in sessions of reading promotion for family audiences and see exhibitions. For example, until January 16, 2014 and with free admission, we can see a exhibition of original illustrations with their corresponding publications and that are also complemented by clothes. It is an attractive offer of fusion of plastic arts and textile design available to the whole family.
And is that the characters created by Oscar Villán for The zebra Camila Y The little white rabbit, the protagonists of The true story of Little Red Riding Hood Y Chickpea, illustrated by Marc Taeger and the adventures of Renato by Manolo Hidalgo, have inspired the design of children's fashion label garments K house. The motto To dress up as a story It has come true with pajamas, t-shirts and 100% cotton dresses, whose texture, make-up and color inform us that care has been taken to the smallest detail.
In Peques and Más we have many news and news about Kalandraka. We remind you that he has turned fifteen and that he has received the National Award for Best Editorial Work 2012. Kalandraka began his activity on International Children's and Youth Book Day, on April 2, 1998 because the Galician edition presented some shortcomings and the Illustrated children's album, with a lot of tradition and prestige in other European countries, was nonexistent in Galicia. His most recognized project is Books to dream which you can know more on their website. In addition they also have an online store with a great reading offer for kids.
We are very glad that Kalandraka has landed in the Barrio de las Letras with K house betting on a very rich, varied and attractive formula that unites literature, clothing, design, illustration and cultural activity. We have to go to take a look and get to know the project live.
