The Accessibility Days at the musée des Beaux-Arts de Caen stand as an experimental laboratory, with a choreographic workshop for professionals (Flora Pilet, company Noésis), a presentation by Muriel Molinier of her thesis for inclusion in the Fine Arts museums, the discovery of sensory devices, vibrating vests, heat-sensitive models and "Easy to read and understand" booklets. These days dedicated to the general public are an opportunity to invite volunteers to imagine new tools to take ownership of the museum by participating in a Museosprint and test a new signage, sensory stations, narrated visits, flash visits, descriptive visits and musical naps.

Note! The group leader is invited to pick up the tickets directly at the reception of the Museum of Fine Arts. The rest of the group will be able to wait in the museum hall.
