Family audience

All year round, the museum offers youngsters the chance to discover its collections through fun and artistic activities:

 

Visits and Workshops:

 

Storytelling tour

  • Family storytelling tours: children and their parents are invited to take a storytelling stroll as the paintings whisper stories (possibility of privatizing the tour for a birthday party)

 

  • Polar tours : Through the works and spaces of the museum, the tour tells the story of the "Massacre de Pantin", a tragedy that shook the whole of Paris, and led to a radical change for the French press: the advent of the "fait divers"! (for a teenage audience)

 

  • Artistic practice workshops : original workshops offered throughout the year where children discover Henner's work through original artistic practice. Béatrice Algazi, painter-decorator and creator of Atelier Konstantin, invites you to delve into the world of pigment and color with her "Baptême des couleurs" workshop. In Stéphanie Wezemael's "Pommes, Poires, Couleurs! "workshop, children will create a self-portrait or an imagined portrait, exploring notions of shape, proportion and facial expression! (For more information, see the agenda!)
