Group workshop : Abbaye Funny animals – art workshop

    Abondance

    Real or imaginary, animals are everywhere in the Abbey. Each one has its own animal to make up the class bestiary!

    Let’s go in search of the animals hidden in the abbey’s decorations. Paintings, sculptures… they are everywhere. Accompanied by a mediator, the class wanders through the different parts that make up an abbey.
    After discovering the medieval bestiary, the pupils sit down in the workshop room and each one draws their own animal. Once cut out, they will find it in a mishmash, thus reconstituting the class’s imaginary bestiary.
