In a festive atmosphere, the museum will open its doors for two weekends—an exceptional event—to welcome some 30 local artisans and allow visitors to explore the museum in a winter setting. It’s an opportunity for adults to meet creators and producers, and for children to enjoy storytelling sessions.
Saturday from 1:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. and Sunday from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Admission: €5 for adults; free for children under 16.
