Workshop: Easter egg making with washi paper

Creative workshops with artist Wendy Higbee Corando

Easter is the time when eggs bloom in gardens. But do you know where this tradition comes from? Spring arrives at the end of March. Eggs symbolise fertility and the creation that accompanies this season of renewal and blossoming.

Wendy Higbee Corando invites you to celebrate this custom by making elegant little decorative eggs from Japanese paper.

Her workshops are always playful and poetic. They take place at La Cure gallery, where the artist is also presenting the Murmures de papiers exhibition.

The art of chocolate at Chocolaterie Baumanière

To celebrate Easter, pastry chef Brandon Dehan, in collaboration with chocolate chef Julien Despaquis, have recreated the world of Van Gogh.

The centrepiece of this limited-edition collection, created in partnership with Ferme 3D, is the painter’s paintbrush in chocolate! The art of chocolate at Chocolaterie Baumanière.
