Join French illustrator Matthieu Maudet (A Mammoth in the Fridge; Hello, Doctor) for a special workshop and reading at Albertine Books. Children will be invited to help Maudet construct a story in real time as he creates drawings based on their suggestions.

For ages 4 and up. 

Co-presented by the French Embassy and Jacadi.

This workshop is part of a month-long, city-wide celebration of the 50th Anniversary of L'École des Loisirs. Festivities include a free, first-ever U.S. exhibition of original drawings by L’École des Loisirs illustrators (Nov. 20 - Dec. 20 at 972 Fifth Ave.) and additional free kids’ workshops around the city at Albertine Books, MoMA Design Store in SoHo, and The Invisible Dog Art Center in Brooklyn. All events are free, in English, and open to the public.
