On the occasion of the 11th European Night of Museums, and for the 3rd consecutive year, the Nice Academy is implementing the “La classe, lโลuvre!” initiative, which aims to allow students to become cultural ambassadors.
In collaboration with their teachers, students have been working for several months within the museums and in their classrooms, drawing inspiration from one or several works of the partner museums.
In association with these institutions, they will offer the general public guided tours, interactive pathways, installations, performances, concerts…
