Watermelon.
France.
This unusual mask came to us from France and holds a simple theatrical secret: never judge a character by their appearance. From the outside, a watermelon may seem heavy and green, but cut it open, and an entirely different world is revealed — bright, juicy, and full of life. That is why the watermelon became a symbol of the contrast between what we show the world and what we keep hidden inside ourselves. When an actor puts on a mask, their real face disappears, but with it comes the freedom to reveal what is usually kept hidden.

With Mikhail Doloko
A tour that is a performance
Mikhail Doloko does not walk you down a corridor of facts. He plays. Children leave with an evening that stays with them — paint still on the air, a secret, a laugh they did not see coming. The excursion is a paid show. Seeing the masks is still free.
