Atelier Archipel
With the villa Noailles mediators
Atelier Archipel is a play space for children aged 3 to 6, featuring materials inspired by the sea and islands. It allows them to build, explore, and invent stories on their own or together, guided by the Villa Noailles mediation team.
Designed to be touched and handled, this immersive environment encourages imagination and creativity.

Through hands-on building activities, the workshop provides children with an opportunity to develop independence and learn by doing. Parents are therefore asked to leave their children in the care of the villa’s staff for the duration of the workshop.

March 25, April 8, April 22, May 6, May 20,
