Quasi due millenni fa, Plancia Magna ha aperto la strada avendo un impatto incredibile sulla città di Perge, nonostante il ruolo solitamente passivo delle donne a quel tempo. È nata in una famiglia ricca e potente, ma invece di vivere una vita facile, ha usato i suoi privilegi a beneficio della sua città. Il suo coraggio, la sua indipendenza e il suo carattere furono celebrati molto tempo dopo la sua epoca e ispirarono le donne a cercare ruoli influenti nella società nel corso dei secoli.
La tua guida formata da National Geographic racconterà l'antica città di Perge con un focus sulla vita e l'eredità di Plancia Magna, una figura d'ispirazione ancora oggi. Forse Plancia è stata una fonte di ispirazione per Hatice Adıgüzel, di cui visiterai il laboratorio in seguito. Scopri le capacità e l'abilità artistica impiegate nella creazione di lampade e ornamenti dalle zucche e impara dalla stessa Hatice ciò che distingue la sua attività: la sua leadership in un settore dominato dagli uomini, il suo impegno nell'emancipazione delle donne locali e la sua scelta di materiali sostenibili.
Durante un seminario pratico, avrai l'opportunità di creare la tua zucca decorativa e di scoprire di più sul lavoro di Hatice con la comunità femminile locale. Lei offre alle donne l'opportunità di coltivare e decorare le zucche per l'azienda da casa. Preparano anche gli snack che potrai gustare durante il workshop. L'obiettivo di Hatice è quello di aiutare le donne che non sono in grado di lavorare regolarmente a causa di impegni di assistenza all'infanzia o restrizioni simili, offrendo loro un modo conveniente per guadagnare.
