Fondation Folon

The Folon Foundation is a wonderful museum to visit with kids. The works of art provide a good starting point for discussions with the vivid colors and the novel designs. Here’s a short guide on Fondation Folon with tips on visiting with kids, so that you know what to expect

Here’s a very short video to get an idea.
This is not a typical museum…
Folon invites us to open the book of his life!
