Hop art exhibition for children

Oct 29, 2017, 08:56 AM

There’s a new exhibition at the Ixelles Museum aimed specifically towards children between 6 and 12 years old. It’s co-produced with the non-profit Patrimoine à Roulettes (Heritage on Wheels), is entitled Hop! and aims to teach art appreciation through movement. The paintings are hung 1,20 meters from the ground to give children a perfect view. The art pieces are paired with each pair representing a movement. Then there is Hop! Lab on Sunday afternoons. This is a long white room with one wall divided into three screens. The children listen, watch and dance, from whirling like a dervish to making nonsense sounds to frenetic freestyle dancing. Yves the coordinator tells us about it. Until 4 February. www.museedixelles.be
