An activity "Expériences Famille" is available here

Puzzle lovers, take note: here, there's no question of fitting together simple pieces of cardboard! At the Stained Glass Museum, we combine ancestral know-how, boundless imagination, and moments of family sharing for an experience that's as fun as it is artistic.

The idea? Transform a simple mirror into a true work of art by assembling pieces of colored glass, a bit like a puzzle... but this time, you're the artist! There's no set pattern here: you create your own, playing with shapes and colors. You'll need to be patient, observant, and, above all, let your creativity run wild. Ready to brighten up your reflection with your own masterpiece?

Welcome to the workshop!

Upon arrival, a facilitator will welcome you and guide you through this experience. Choose from two options: decorate the edges of a mirror or assemble a large mosaic as a family on a single mirror. The choice is yours! From creation to satisfaction: seeing your work take shape during this workshop promises wonderful surprises!

Shapes and colors… that’s up for discussion!

Before you begin, you have to make a choice (and not an insignificant one): what colors and shapes will make up your masterpiece? Squares, triangles, and other original shapes... Anything goes! The hardest part is reaching an agreement. It's a real team effort!

Lacking inspiration? Use one of the many stencils available. Grab a marker to trace the outlines... grab some colored glass pieces and let's get creative. With the almond-scented glue, it's guaranteed to take older children back to their childhood!

Little by little, your mirror is coming to life... All that's left is to find a place to display it in your home.

To continue the experience…

If this colorful adventure has made you want to learn even more about stained glass, head to the Stained Glass Museum! You'll be immersed in a magical world where light plays with color. Good news: thanks to your participation in the workshop, you'll benefit from a preferential rate! €4 for adults (ages 11 and up), and it's a gift for children. One more reason to extend the experience with your family!
