THE ACTIVITIES

Our experienced guides will reveal the secrets of the museum or temporary exhibitions.

Possibility to organise Night tours

Combine your guided tour of the Folon Foundation with:
– Wellington Museum in Waterloo
– Nature guides: fauna and flora of Solvay park

Every year, the Foundation welcomes thousands of visitors experiencing physical or mental difficulties. It offers the possibility of adapting its tours to specific requirements. The Folon Foundation has been designed to facilitate access for people of reduced mobility. Two wheelchairs are made available.

Live the museum with the youngest in a unique poetic experience: enter the artist’s book and meet with his characters.

For 40 minutes, Folon’s works will come to life through magical games and manipulations that allow children to explore their senses, see, hear, touch, and feel objects.

The watercolor painting workshops will enrich your (self-led or guided) tour of the museum by helping you to look, in a creative way, at the emblematic themes of Folon’s body of work.

Watercolour painting course for adults

6-month – 10 lessons  (class every other Sunday)

Initiation and improvement in watercolor.

Realize your personal travel book by taking inspiration from the museum and the greenery that houses it: the magnificent Solvay Park and its 227 hectares.

Come celebrate your birthday creatively and playfully. The workshops offer two fun formulas:

THE PORTRAIT OF A BIRD

Capture by drawing the birds you meet in the museum. In the workshops, give them shape and color then release them on a large sheet in a blue sky of watercolor.

ON SCENE, THE KIDS!

Locate characters or decor elements in the museum. In the workshops, draw them, cut them out, give them colors so that stage sets and characters integrate the story that the host will make live on the stage of a miniature theater.

Self-led tour and workshop  – Open to visitors wishing to organize a family activity at weekends, on Wednesdays and during school holidays.
