All Events at this Venue

Wednesday 7 October

Begin at the edge of a pond where reeds whisper and a willow brushes the water. Pouik the duck and Piou the little bird meet and set off together to discover the world. Paper puppets come to life to the sound of delicate music, revealing poppies, ladybirds and a sparkling stream. The performance invites very young children to touch, listen and explore through gentle movement and quiet wonder.

In French. Kids ages 1 and up.

16 September – 12 June

Discover stories and songs designed for little ones and their grown-ups. Through gentle songs, rhythmic rhymes and tactile books, children are invited to explore sounds, colours and simple narratives. Sessions encourage early language, curiosity and imaginative play as caregivers share close moments of listening, turning pages and playful movement. Activities are calm, sensory-rich and suited to babies and toddlers, nurturing attention and the love of stories.

In French. Kids ages 0–5.

Wednesday 14 October, 13:30

Explore the colours and textures of autumn in a hands-on workshop. Children will learn to identify common trees and their leaves, experiment with stencils and pages from old books, and create leaf prints and a small paper herbarium. Using paint and collage, each child designs a seasonal keepsake to take home. The session combines botanical discovery and creative play to engage young imaginations.

In French. Kids ages 4 and up.

Wednesday 21 October, 10:00 and 14:00

Join illustrator Irène Schoch in a playful workshop where children reinvent the flap-book format and design their own dressed, colourful animals. Young creators will imagine characters, cut and decorate paper silhouettes, then combine their pages into a shared book to flip, mix and invent new metamorphoses. The session encourages hands-on exploration, bright colours, tactile cutting and collaborative play while nurturing imagination and illustration skills.

In French. Kids ages 5 and up.

Thursday 22 October, 15:00

Driven by a deep passion for Japan’s arts and culture, this workshop invites preteens to explore the technique and visual language of manga portraiture. Young mangakas will learn to draw a characteristic portrait—large expressive eyes, simplified mouth, dynamic hair—focusing on clean strokes and controlled lines. The session explains the specific rules and expressive vocabulary of manga, helping participants sharpen observational skills and develop creativity through structured exercises and guided practice.

In French.

Wednesday 18 November, 13:30

Flavie Ndam, known as Flappillon, leads a hands-on workshop combining drawing and storytelling. Following a short picture-book reading about the circus, participants are invited to illustrate their own stories, experimenting with characters, colours and stage-like compositions. The activity develops imagination, visual expression and collaborative sharing between children and their accompanying adults. No prior experience required; materials and guided instructions are provided.
