PA1264 dans le musée en herbe, Children's art museum in central Paris, France
PA1264 dans le musée en herbe is an art museum in central Paris designed for children to learn through direct engagement. The space features colorful installations and interactive displays that encourage young visitors to explore artworks firsthand rather than simply observe them.
The museum was founded in the 1970s by Sylvie Girardet, Anne Tardy, and Claire Merleau-Ponty as a pioneer in art education for children. This initiative set a new approach for how museums could introduce young people to contemporary art.
Young visitors discover how contemporary artists express ideas through interactive encounters with artworks designed for their perspective. These hands-on experiences encourage children to understand creative thinking as something they can explore and experiment with themselves.
Admission is affordable and the space is designed to be approachable for visitors of all ages. The central location makes it easy to reach, whether you plan to spend a full afternoon or fit a quick visit into your itinerary.
Visitors can join workshops where children work with everyday materials like yogurt containers, learning how artists transform ordinary objects into new creations. This hands-on experience demonstrates that creativity doesn't require expensive materials but grows from what is already around us.
