Granite Cutting Demonstrations
A walk in a park located in the heart of the village, the park-museum of granite is the guardian of a memory and a local know-how.You walk in a vast park with remarkable trees discovering an exceptional collection of objects. Along the route, five boxes tell the geology, the size, the various uses of granite. A «family-path» composed of ten or so markers calls for touch and observation: a playful initiation adapted to children. The public will benefit from the explanations of the volunteers of the association of the friends of the granite on the working conditions, on the name of the tools, on the usefulness of the objects realized a few centuries ago and presented in the park. It is also an opportunity for the public to discover or rediscover the monumental sculptures that were created during the last artist residencies gathered in a sculpture park next to the Museum Park while waiting for the next residence in 2022. The JEP 2021 will also be an opportunity for you to discover the exhibition of Aude Van Eeckhout Frey entitled "The giants of the career".
