or Wednesday, March 1st, 2023 from 2:30 p.m. to 5 p.m.

For children aged 9 to 12

From the rise of Nazism to World War II, artists have mobilized to denounce and bear witness. Children discover this singular commitment through archival documents, photographs and artistic reproductions. The analysis of the works of Charlotte Salomon, John Heartfield, Marc Chagall and Felix Nussbaum leads them to better understand the role of artists in the Resistance.

From food shortages to the gradual implementation of the exclusion of Jews from society, they follow the questioning and awareness of the two inseparable friends, Spirou and Fantasio.
