À L’ÉCOLE
The Storytellers project offers valuable educational enrichment in primary schools across the canton of Valais, for children aged 4 to 7. It is especially aimed at schools that lack arts programmes in the classroom.
Storytellers fosters a love of words, art, and music through a well-known story told by an actor, classical music performed by alumni of the Verbier Festival Academy, and an illustrator who creates live animation. The team collaborates to offer a series of artistic workshops and performances based on an original production for children, with the involvement of teachers using provided educational resources. In 2025, children will discover the story of L’Enfant et les Sortilèges and the music of Maurice Ravel.
The programme runs in schools from February to June. In 2024, nearly 1,300 children from 26 schools too part.
CAMP STORYTELLERS
During the Verbier Festival, the Storytellers Camp invites children aged 5 to 12 to immerse themselves in music, theatre, and the visual arts.
Over the course of the five-day programme, kids read, draw, act, dance, and discover music. Their adventure culminates in a musical procession to the Verbier Cinema, where their artistic creations, live narration, animation, and music bring their stories to life.
Details of the 2025 edition of Storytellers Camp will be announced in mid-May.
