High school level

EXPRESSION’s educational services are offered in French only.

EXPRESSION hosts high-school groups for educational activities adapted to the different levels. Though they may have come to the museum when they were in elementary school, students are invited to undertake a more complex exploration of our exhibitions, to stroll through the space, and to broaden their knowledge of art through fun-filled visits and stimulating made-to-measure creative workshops. A mediator may even come to your classroom! The varied approaches enable them to understand and appreciate the artworks in different way, notably through play, questions, conversation, and co-creation.
