Schools

Educational offer schools

For the 2025–2026 school year, MAV offers nurseries and schools of all levels two distinct yet complementary educational spaces.
EduMav, in Fénis, provides sensory activities and hands-on workshops designed to introduce children, starting at age three, to traditional Aosta Valley craftsmanship. Interactive visits and personalized learning paths are tailored to the age and interests of each class, allowing them to explore artisan techniques — such as woodworking or wool weaving — starting from the museum’s exhibits.
Spazi0rsoEdu, in Aosta, is a new experiential space dedicated to children aged 0–3 and teens aged 12–16. Based on freedom, creativity, and inclusiveness, it encourages sensory and relational exploration in welcoming, sustainable, and constraint-free environments, where personal expression is at the heart of the experience.
A variety of proposals ensures that every child and teenager can find new learning stimuli in our programs, and every teacher can recognize a space aligned with their educational approach.
In addition to our structured workshops, we also offer the possibility to co-design custom educational paths, tailored to the themes addressed during the school year.
We look forward to welcoming you back to our museum and exploring the new workshops together!
