Traveling Educational Museum kit - Historical Archive of the National Bank of Greece

This traveling educational museum kit was designed for the Historical Archive of the National Bank of Greece, in order to bring their permanent exhibition of Greek banknotes to school classes throughout Greece. The Historical Archive of the National Bank of Greece holds a permanent exhibition dedicated to Greek banknote, from its first issues in 1822 to 2002, when Greece joined the euro currency. In cooperation with the museum educators of the Historical Archive, we designed a range of educational materials and activities, including an original board game, which can travel inside a suitcase in any school in Greece. Designed for students of ages 11-16, this traveling kit offers them the opportunity to engage playfully with the Greek banknote and its rich history and appreciate the banknote as uniquely complex archival and artistic material, connecting the economy with the history, the art and the identity of the modern Greek state.
