Description

Paris is filled with art beyond its museums, and around La Villette, some of it is hiding in plain sight. Your experience begins with a 45-minute exploration of the neighborhood, starting with an introduction to the pixelated mosaics of Space Invader before discovering the work of other street artists in the park and surrounding streets.

Then it is your turn to create. After a welcome drink, your family will take part in a two-hour graffiti workshop, learning techniques and experimenting with your own ideas before painting directly onto a wall. Children and parents can get involved together, turning inspiration from the streets into their own urban artwork.

Combining discovery with hands-on creativity, this experience offers an original introduction to Parisian street culture and the chance to understand street art not only by looking at it, but by trying it yourselves.
