Metz. Do you know who these children are exhibiting at the Trinitarian Church?

On Sainte-Croix Hill, the Trinitaires Church in Metz will host, from Wednesday to Sunday until June 8, the work carried out over a six-month period by students from Metz schools and the metropolitan area alongside artists. These collective works combine writing, drawing, and cutting, as well as sensitivity and poetry.

Until June 8, the Trinitaires church in Metz, accessible despite the street closure, is hosting the exhibition "Artistes en Herbe." For six months, Metz artists such as David Verlet and Mélanie Gerber (Assolatelier), Nathalie Bonafé and Violette Graveline (Demeure Dure), Marie-Pierre Mazzarini and Samira Meddhi (Entre les actes), Clémence Brandenbourger (Octave Cowbell gallery)… worked in seven schools in Metz (Les Acacias, Michel-Colucci, Les Bordes, Louis-Pergaud, Jean-Moulin, Sainte-Thérèse, Fort-Moselle), and at the Les Hérons kindergarten in La Maxe to introduce children to the artistic process. From their meetings were born collective creations combining drawing, architecture, cutting, collage, writing… but also poetry and ecology.
