« Scol'art » programme

Casino Luxembourg offers a mediation/visit programme aimed at school groups in basic, secondary and higher education, as well as relay houses and school foyers. It aims to develop a critical sense and observation, to open the discussion on the different forms of creation and their relationship to the current world.

Guided tours
Guided tours can take several forms: visits in the company of an exhibition guide, around the history of the Casino, discussion of contemporary art or other topics.

Tailor-made workshops
These are workshops directly linked to the current exhibition. After the guided tour, the participants carry out specific projects under the supervision of a mediator.

Permanent workshops
Accessible all year round and independent of temporary exhibitions, these workshops are inspired by the permanent works of the Casino.

 "Rethink your clothes" is an awareness-raising campaign on the social and environmental issues of the textile industry, conducted by Caritas Luxembourg and the NGO Fairtrade Lëtzebuerg.  

In the framework of the exhibition Adrien Vescovi – Jours de lenteur at Casino Luxembourg, the pedagogical team of "Rethink your clothes" is organising a creative awareness-raising workshop, accompanied by artist Nora Schlesser. During this workshop, we will question our relationship with textiles and reflect on more sustainable behaviour.

Using the sewing technique, the pupils design a large collective garment. Fabric patches are used as a basis for a free creation according to the group's choices. At the end of the workshop, the students take a group photo of their collective creation.

Permanent workshops

In the framework of the exhibition Adrien Vescovi – Jours de lenteur (on offer until 29.01.2023):

Landscape in fabric 

all ages

Fabric takes us to fantastic places. Each colour and pattern can represent the characteristics of a material or a landscape. In this workshop, students use different coloured fabrics to create their abstract panorama.

Colours of the earth

A palette of earth colours is composed from different earth pigments. These different colour samples can then be rearranged in large collective collages.

Writing workshop "Jours de lenteur"

from 12 years old 

Pupils experiment with the slow-motion exhibition. The observations and impressions of this experience will then be transformed into texts that question our relationship to time. 

keywords: writing, relationship to time, deceleration, observation 

In the framework of the exhibition Sound Without Music (on offer until 27.11.2022): 

Painting sound 

All ages - limited to 10 people 

Students experiment with the link between the auditory and the visual. By placing microphones on the canvas, it becomes an unusual musical instrument. Each painting tool produces sounds that guide the students in the creation of their abstract painting. 

keywords: abstract painting, sound art 

In the framework of the exhibition Jeremy Hutchison – The Never Never (workshops from 03.12.2022 to 29.01.2023): 

Contemporary Myths 

All ages 

Inspired by Jeremy Hutchison and his half-human, half-Porsche beings, students use collage to create their own new imaginary creatures, whose characteristics they will have to describe in their own contemporary myths.  

keywords: collage, fake news
