Dedicated to ceramics and glass, the Musée Ariana is situated in a majestic 19th-century building within a 4-hectare park near the United Nations. In addition to its permanent collection, the museum regularly curates temporary exhibitions, frequently featuring the work of contemporary artists. Musee Ariana provides guided tours and organizes workshops for children.
Explore stories and games across the museum. Solve clues in a playful investigation about a curious founder, move from room to room and uncover hidden secrets. Try medieval calligraphy with ink and quill, feel the scratch of the nib and the flow of black strokes. Join a lively time-travel visit with a young character, and listen to a colourful kamishibai tale about Lin the mouse and her blue-and-white vase.
Create a face from a single button and watch it come alive. Explore colorful shapes and textures inspired by the exhibition Tender Buttons, then imagine and decorate your own character with paints, fabrics and funny features. Draw, stick, and mix materials while the illustrator guides simple drawing ideas. Hear soft brushes, see bright colors, and feel different materials as your character grows from a tiny idea into a playful friend.
In French. Kids ages 5–7.
