At the Studio: Figures of the Fool

The Studio is a dedicated space inside the Louvre, designed for families, school groups, students, young workers, arts professionals, and visitors with disabilities or from disadvantaged communities. There’s always more to discover at the Studio! 

But what, exactly, can you do there?

The Studio’s forum offers you a starting point for your visit; it’s a place to plan your path through the museum with the help of a museum employee, to read, play, participate in group activities or simply take a break.

Need to prepare your visit? 

Looking for a creative space to take a break with the family?
