Preparing for the visit

The “Adventurers of the musée du quai Branly - Jacques Chirac”, is for you! Get ready to leave with the family to discover the diversity of cultures, to explore astonishing sites, to experience moments of sharing between parents and children… The museum sets up everything to make your journey easier!

An adventure passport for children

The musée du quai Branly - Jacques Chirac accompanies each child in his adventure, by offering a passport (available at the museum reception). Have it stamped at the reception each time you come: when you have three stamps, the whole family wins!

  • Children receive a gift to start making their adventurer’s kit.
  • Parents win a discount on the Twin Pass+ to extend their exploration of the museum for a whole year (direct access without queuing and unlimited access for 2 adults and accompanying children under 18 years; discounts for family activities…). 

 

Le « passeport »

Pour accompagner vos voyages à travers les cultures du monde, vous trouverez en pages centrales un Passeport, à faire tamponner à chacune de vos visites ! Au troisième tampon , l’enfant reçoit un cadeau.

Vers d'autres mondes ... Pour continuer le voyage au musée à la maison !

S’appuyant sur des épopées ou des mythes mettant en scène des héros et héroïnes remarquables, le musée publie, pour la première fois, un album jeunesse illustré (6-12 ans) avec quatre contes issus des traditions orales des populations d’origine des œuvres de ses collections extra-européennes.
Muriel Bloch et HifuMiyo embarquent les enfants, à un rythme trépidant, pour un voyage aux côtés de l’intrépide et facétieux roi Singe.

Album disponible à la librairie-boutique du musée.
