Culture and me

The CULTURE_UP programme offers educational workshops to institutions that work with youth, allowing the latter to awaken their creativity and potential.

The CULTURE_UP programme offers extracurricular cultural workshops to various institutions, associations, and initiatives that work with children and young people. These diversified and high-quality offers cover all fields of non-formal education and are implemented by our various educational partners. They promote children's and young people's creativity and allow them to discover their passions and potential.

Since launching the programme in November 2020, various projects have taken place:
