Villa Plage: Aller-Retours - Workshops for children

Sonia Dumitrescu offers workshops that focus on the creative process, imagination and self-discovery. Together with the artist, we present 6 workshops that resonate with her artistic approach and the circular garden of the Villa Vauban - a microcosm in the middle of Luxembourg City whose special atmosphere influences visitors, as well as the concept of these workshops. Aller-retour invites you to mix the real and the imaginary, because here creation is in an in-between place.

RELAXATION
The dog is curled up and resting quietly. His immobility allows us to observe him closely. What details can we see? What other materials resemble his fur? Let's take this moment of relaxation as a source of inspiration and create other ‘balls of fur’.

FLY
Imagining flying through the sky is both fascinating and frightening. Of all the winged creatures you know, which is your favourite? Do they exist in our world or are they imaginary? Let's make some creatures and give them the chance to do what they love most: take to the skies.
