Play, explore and learn
Designed for children as young as 6 months and open to all, the Atelier Rodin is packed with hands-on activities to encourage an intuitive and playful exploration of sculpture and the world of Auguste Rodin.
La cabane des tout-petits! – A brand-new immersive space tailored for children aged 6 to 24 months, designed to awaken their artistic curiosity through sensory experiences.
Touche-à-tout! – Discover the tools and materials of the sculptor in an interactive space where visitors can model and create, alone or with others. Before you leave, display your work in the masterpiece showcase or take it home!
En forme! – Experience the joy of assembly and balance, just as Rodin did. Experiment with different scales of The Thinker and capture the moment in the photo studio.
Get your pencils ready! – A call to draw, colour, and fold, from large-scale chalkboard sketches to fine details.
What a Story – A cozy reading corner, reminiscent of a garden, where visitors can relax, laugh, and learn.
On your marks, get set, move! – A fun and physical approach to sculpture, where you can explore movement, balance, and torsion using your whole body.
L’édition 2025 de l’Atelier Rodin bénéficie du généreux soutien de Arundo Re, mécène du musée Rodin depuis 2018, et de la Fondation Lazard Frères Gestion.
Chaque année, le musée Rodin confie la création de l’affiche de l’Atelier Rodin à un ou une jeune artiste encore en cours d’études.
Le visuel de l’édition 2025 a été confié à l'artiste Loup Bellem, dans le cadre d’un partenariat noué avec la Haute école des arts du Rhin (HEAR).
« Mon style repose sur un esprit minimaliste et graphique, mêlant abstraction et éléments figuratifs. Pour ce dessin, j’ai voulu assembler diverses formes en m’inspirant de la puissance de la silhouette du Penseur de Rodin et créer un lieu imaginaire qui stimule la créativité des enfants. »

A celebration of young talent
Each year, the Atelier Rodin poster is entrusted to an emerging artist. For 2024, the guest artist is Loup Bellem, a student at the Haute École des Arts du Rhin (HEAR).
Guest artist for the 2024 edition: Loup Bellem
“My style is rooted in a minimalist and graphic approach, blending abstraction with figurative elements. For this poster, I was inspired by the powerful silhouette of The Thinker, assembling various forms to create an imaginary space that sparks children’s creativity.”
