The Ravezou Gallery
1 school street – 04 94 29 12 76
Who said that art was reserved for adults? Well, in Bandol, we don't see it that way and are in favor of children, even the youngest, having the opportunity to learn about this creative world. There, it's said.
This is why, every Tuesday and Saturday morning, the Galerie Ravaisou organizes cultural mediation sessions to learn art while having fun. From 10 a.m., your little cherubs are invited to a fun discovery of the current exhibitions in the gallery and then to a creative workshop during which they will transform themselves into real little artists. Cherry on the cake, these mornings are free upon registration, and accessible from 4 years old.
