==Info==
Learn how to build a mask!

We will build a mask of a bat species and pay tribute to bats and their fight for survival in our time of biodiversity crisis. 
The mask workshops are divided into two parts: 1) Building the mask. Then it needs a day to dry. 2) Painting the mask.
If you are only able to participate one day, you can bring the mask with you and paint it at home. 

REMEMBER TO BRING A BIKE HELMET. We will use it as a base to build the mask. 

ALL OTHER MATERIALS WILL BE PROVIDED. If you do not have a bike helmet, please write and we will find one for you. 
You can use the mask for performances, actions, demonstrations, halloween, celebration days as Biodiversity Day or Earth Day. 

You can prepare at home and think about what bat species you would like to make a mask of. Otherwise, there will be a book of pictures of bats that you can look through to find your bat species.
