5

Looking for the ideal cultural outing to do with the family during the school holidays this February? We have a great plan for you! Next Saturday February 24 and Sunday February 25, the Center Georges Pompidou is organizing a special weekend that is both fun and educational to enjoy with the family, dedicated to children from 0 to 5 years old. On the program, you will be able to find many completely free activities and events, to awaken your family to contemporary art and gently develop the creative sense of your little ones!

Children and toddlers will be able to participate in visits designed especially for their young age, but also discover thematic tours in different rooms of the famous Parisian museum, or even immerse themselves in installations designed to amaze them... But this is not not everything, since creative workshops will also be offered throughout the weekend, to allow them to develop their senses!

Here is the incredible program that awaits you in the museum, level by level:
