Description
The museum provides sensory bags with soothing objects, drawing materials and activity sheets for visitors to use while touring the rooms of the Pavillon pour la Paix. In addition, we offer The Art Hive, a creative workshop space supervised by an art therapist and a museum mediator, where artistic materials are available free of charge. You'll have access to a variety of tools and recycled materials, enabling you to express yourself freely through art.
