Kids’ workshop around our “PASSAGE” exhibition: fabrics tell stories! Let’s explore them!
Have you ever wondered where the patterns that decorate the fabrics in your home or on your clothes come from? And how are their colors made? During this week’s workshop, we’ll explore the vast history of textile colors and patterns, and what they say about us and the world we live in. An opportunity, for once, to create our own colors from our environment (using dye plants from wasteland, kitchen scraps, etc.), and to reinject meaning into the images that adorn our fabrics.
The workshop will be conducted in French by Amandine Brun Sauvant, a textile designer trained at the Beaux-Arts of Clermont-Ferrand and La Cambre.
When? From 8 to 12 July 2024, 10am to 5pm.
Who is it for? Children aged 9 to 12
Price: €90 for the workshop (€70 with Pass Cultuur Marolles)
LIMITED PLACES (max 10 children)
To register, please contact edu@mjb-jmb.org
Amandine Brun Sauvant is a textile designer trained at the Beaux-arts in Clermont-Ferrand and at La Cambre.
She discovered vegetable dyeing in Malaysia in 2016, where she learned to draw colors exclusively from local plants from the weavers of Rumah Gareh.
Back in Brussels, she deepened her apprenticeship with Charlotte Marembert and Michel Garcia, never to leave this healthier and, above all, living color tool. Initially drawn to the history of printed textiles, from Indians to digital prints, she explores, through weaving, printing and resist dyeing, how a woven surface can present different degrees of legibility, meaning and color.
This building, built in 1878, bears witness to the desire for integration of the Jewish community in this city. An opportunity to discover the architectural and religious heritage of Brussels.
Want to discover Judaism? We propose three workshops on Jewish cultures aimed at all audiences, regardless of their origin, faiths and beliefs. Our ambition is to build bridges across people, showing the commonalities between cultures and their enriching differences. The Jewish Museum of Belgium is a place where to meet and dialogue and where all questions can be asked, without taboo.
The workshops have been designed in partnership with the CEJI (Jewish Contribution for an Inclusive Europe)
The ABC of Judaïsm (8 to 99 yo)
What rites and practices are part of the life of a Jewish family? Emphasis will be placed on what makes us alike from a social, cultural and religious standpoint. During this workshop, participants get an insight on Jewish rites.
Myths & Stereotypes (12 to 99 yo)
Thanks to an interactive visit (of part) of the museum, students become familiar with another culture. They discuss similarities and differences with their own culture. During this workshop, thanks to visual aids, and based on Jewish experiences, they become aware of cultural myths and stereotypes. They discover how stereotypes work, how propaganda can use them and what dangers this entails.
Rites of passage from here and elsewhere (8 to 99 yo)
What is a rite of passage? Why do we celebrate birth? Why do we commemorate death? What are the differences and similarities between religions and cultures? This workshop encourages critical thinking and questioning, as well as the discovery of other cultures.
By meeting someone who lived through and survived the Shoah, young people make the link between their history classes and the real-life experience of the witness. Life stories bring to life events that, for younger generations, seem remote.
Through personal stories, which they can present themselves, students become familiar with the history of the 20th convoy to Auschwitz and the resistance that rose up against it.
Through the eyes of refugees, a walk in the Marolles in search of Jewish migration from the beginning of the 20th century until the post-war period. Our tools consist of photos, maps and historical documents on tablets. The history of Europe and its migrations, condensed in a district of Brussels!
