## About this plan

Saturdays in Bogotá have a plan with Trazos y Relatos, a kids' club that mixes literature with hands-on creation at Biblioteca Pública Virgilio Barco. The idea is simple and powerful: read a story together and then turn it into a drawing, a model, or an invented object.

The space is built so children and adults share a different morning, with reading as the starting point and imagination as the engine. Each meeting offers a new adventure, so it's worth arriving early, picking a book, and going with the flow.

Like much of BibloRed's cultural program in Bogotá, entry is free. Just confirm the date and time at the source before going with the kids.

- Kids' reading and creation club
- A space for families to share together
- Literature as the starting point
- Hands-on activities after reading

## Who it's for
