DISCOVER BOHIN EVENTS
European Heritage Days
The Manufacture Bohin will be open, Saturday 19th and Sunday 20th September 2020, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. with exceptional tours! Unguided visits (paying) will be possible during the two days without reservation.
Building on their success for several years, the “privilege” tours will take place on Saturday with two departures during the day. The European Heritage Days are the unique moment to pass behind the guardrails and discover the backstage of the company, the machines that are not on the usual path of the visits, accompanied by one of the managers of the company (paying, only by reservation).
Introductory comments to the free tours will be offered on Sunday (paying, several departures, limited capacity, registration required). If the crowd is too busy, visitors may be asked to wait outside.
2020 season postpone but...
The museum reopens its doors from July 16. We are fortunate to welcome an exhibition by Leslie Lucas great artist at the manufacture's boutique:
Come and discover fascinating and little-known women in history! Artists, athletes, heroines, scientists ... This series of portraits combining cyanotypes, contemporary embroidery and gold leaf, will allow you to dive into extraordinary journeys! The exhibition in the gallery of the La Manufacture Bohin boutique (free access during opening hours) also presents other works by the artist around the feminine theme, such as a triptych created in homage to the anonymous work of women, inspired by an archive photograph from La Manufacture Bohin.
Leslie Lucas is a Norman artist, a graduate of the Boulle and the Lesage school. She uses this precious know-how to create new works of art and perpetuate this transmission. Through her work, where beauty and poetry mingle, she invites us to dive into a meditative, contemplative universe, imbued with delicacy and strength, in search of memory and sensory links in the world around us.
As part of the Days of Matrimony, organized by the HF Normandie association, Leslie Lucas will be present on September 19th and 20th to present her work and inspirations to visitors.
