Explore Hodler’s bold flowers and learn to see shapes, colors, and lines in a new way. Observe paintings up close and notice patterns, curves, and contrasts. Then try a simple, playful drawing technique to make your own flower inspired by nature. Use color, sweeping lines, and imaginative details to create a piece that moves and sings. Work with an adult to experiment and share ideas as your artwork grows.
Kids ages 7–10 accompanied by an Adult.
Animatou is the leading animation film festival in French-speaking Switzerland, dedicated to showcasing the best of contemporary animated cinema and championing bold, author-driven works that rarely find space in traditional theatres.

Build, program, and invent in hands-on workshops designed for curious kids. Work in teams to explore mechanics behind cable systems, then switch to coding with LEGO SPIKE Prime, designing simple video games in Scratch, and shaping worlds in Minecraft. You’ll prototype, test, and see ideas come alive through movement, color, and sound. Short challenges spark logic, creativity, and teamwork while playful tasks make learning about machines and code feel like an adventure.
Kids ages 8–12.
Explore museum collections and discover how artists bring plants and flowers to life. Choose from leaves and other natural materials to press into soft clay and make your own prints. Feel textures, see bright shapes, and hear the gentle crunch of dried leaves. Shape your pieces, add colors, and watch simple marks become small stories. This creative workshop helps you notice nature’s details and use them to tell your own plant tales.
Kids ages 5–8.
Step into Euphonia, an interactive sound installation inspired by Hector Berlioz’s tale Euphonia ou La Ville musicale. Here you don’t just listen: you blow, build, play, probe and invent together. Along the route you create your own instrument before exploring a vast participatory organ. Sounds circulate, answer each other and meet to form a collective composition. No musical training is required — a playful sonic adventure to share with family.
In French. Kids ages 4 and up.
