In the Children’s Wing, open workshops and talented adults help you get started and inspire everyone to join in. The activities are always based on current museum exhibitions or collections.

Room for creativity

Louisiana Museum of Modern Art’s Children’s Wing is, like the rest of the museum, an architectural gem. Here, there are three bright and airy floors with elbow room for creatively. In the workshops, expert art intermediaries are ready to facilitate learning at eye-level with children. The workshops are open Tuesday through Sunday 11:00-17:30.

Play, explore and learn

The Children’s Wing always engages with activities that are based on current exhibitions or Louisiana’s permanent collection. Children enjoy the opportunity to explore artistic and architectural expressions and ways of working with art.

This can include shaping abstract animals from clay, just like Max Ernst. Or letting paint drip on the paper to try out Sam Francis’ artistic methods. Or making small furniture with a glue gun and cardboard to create your own small universe, just like Pipilotti Rist. The tasks are imaginative, playful and stimulating.

With a hands-on and inspiring approach, children learn to deal with art in a straightforward and relaxed way that can benefit them for the rest of their lives.

What are you doing on Sunday?

Children aged 4-16 can attend the Sunday workshops in Louisiana. Here, you see the current exhibition and talk about it before heading to the workshop to try out the artist’s ideas, materials and techniques.

This takes place every Sunday 11:30-13:00, starting in the Children’s Wing.

  • Price DKK 20 incl. materials

Always fun activities during the school holidays
