Summer vacations 2023: activities, family outings and workshops at the Musée en Herbe

What are we doing with the kids this summer? We're going to a museum! And not just any museum: we've chosen the most creative, fun and child-friendly museum in Paris, the Musée en Herbe. With its attractive summer program, there's no doubt that it's the perfect place for a family cultural outing.

Since June, the Musée en Herbe has been hosting its latest exhibition, Seth se la joue, based on the street artist of the same name. For the occasion, we're inviting you to immerse yourself in the artist's world in the heart of the museum: with this colorful, playful exhibition, even the little ones will find something to suit them! So, for the summer vacations, the Musée en Herbe is offering a special program of workshops, guided tours and activities for all ages, from 3 to 103.

From June 8, 2023 to May 12, 2024, we're continuing (and ending) the year in style at the Musée en Herbe, a cultural venue on a child's scale, designed especially for the little ones: in fact, it's Parisian street artist Seth who has made the museum his brand-new playground with a brand-new exhibition dedicated to him, Seth se la joue.

Of course, we'd advise you to go and see the Seth se la joue exhibition first, but you're also free to take advantage of the creative workshops, offered in 4-hand groups (parents and children or other accompanying adults) for the little ones, or on your own for older children up to 12 years of age. For the summer vacations, the Musée en Herbe also invites the Canopée media library for two sessions of story readings, on July 25 and August 25 (at 3pm).

The museum even goes beyond its walls to offer guided family tours, like treasure hunts, to discover the street art of the 13th arrondissement and the Canal Saint-Martin, the hideaways of the Jardin des Tuileries, the beautiful spaces of the Jardin du Luxembourg, the hilltop of Montmartre... As you can see, there's plenty to keep the kids busy all afternoon this summer at the Musée en Herbe!
