The interdisciplinary workshop Journey to Neverland is intended for lower elementary school students. Conceptually, it draws on the beloved children's novel, also a reading title, about Peter Pan – the boy who didn't want to grow up. The workshop consists of several creative and interconnected activities that introduce children to the magical world of the fictional land of Neverland and encourage them to create their own musical and literary works together, inspired by the story. The goal of the workshop is to introduce children to the world of the story and encourage them to engage in creative expression and collaborative learning through play, movement, rhythm and the creation of new content.
