Bozar from a Child's Perspective

Did Victor Horta have children in mind when he designed the Centre for Fine Arts? In any case, Bozar is a place that plays to the imagination of the very young! Art, music and film are all there for them to explore, discover and enjoy. During the spring break, it’s the perfect opportunity to experience this artistic adventure through their eyes.

Here are the best things to do with children at Bozar during February half-term 2025. From interactive tours to eye-popping shows, there’s something for everyone. Are you ready for a cultural adventure?  

1. "When We See Us", a century of pan-African figurative painting  

A chance for youngsters to discover vibrant and expressive works, the When We See Us exhibition highlights the work of pan-African artists from around the world over the last century. Through their paintings, they share stories of their daily lives, struggles, and joys. Like children, artists see the world from a unique perspective... When We See Us is a visual as well as audio journey, as the exhibition has its own soundtrack! Come and explore with the children, talk, listen and, above all, have fun!
