The stop motion animation workshop held at the Museum of Contemporary Art of the Republic of Srpska was the very first in a series of creative events for children.

The workshop included both theory and practice, with the aim of teaching the participating children the basics of animation, from a concept to a completed project. The goal of the workshop was raising public awareness about the importance of educating school-attending children and promoting and teaching animation as a form of creative activity, which combines in it a number of disciplines.

The two-day workshop consisted of a series of short exercises in stop motion animation. The participants were expected to come up with and implement their own ideas, and also to prepare a script and draw a storyboard for a joint animation project. They jointly made a short animated commercial for the Night of Museums 2012, which was broadcast on Radio Television of the Republic of Srpska and during the all-night event The Night of Museums held at the Museum of Contemporary Art of the Republic of Srpska.
