Raoul Lala: Operation CCR
In ribambelle!
Guided tour with tablet for ages 7 and up
Mucem and puppets have a long history of love and collections! Guided by a fun application, children are invited to set off in search of Raoul Lala – Marseille’s most famous puppet – through the most secret corners of the reserves of the Centre de Conservation et de Ressources (CCR) de la Belle de Mai. We’ve even heard that some curious puppets will be coming out of their storerooms for the occasion… Design and production: LE M@RIOLAB

Popular baby
Sensory visit inspired by object theater for 18 months - 3 years
In this sensory visit, inspired by object theater and specially adapted for toddlers, we meet a little sheep in search of its bell… With its thousand and one treasures, the “Populaire? Treasures from the collections” is an invitation to awaken their senses and their appetite for discovery. Because there’s no age limit for learning about (and marveling at) the world of museums!

Have you ever visited “Populaire? Treasures from the collections”? The objects on display, from the simplest to the most spectacular, all have something to tell us… like the story told by the wise and slightly mad Nasreddine, whom everyone loved to listen to. In an imaginary country in the East, the palace peacock sets out to find the most beautiful gift for the little prince’s birthday… but what would be the ideal present among all the treasures in the...
