A free art marathon at the Musée national de Céramique de Sèvres

Did you know? Since 1740, the Manufacture de Sèvres has been producing porcelain pieces for the French government and major national events. For example, the trophy vases that will be presented to the French gold medallists at the Paris 2024 Games were made at the Manufacture de Sèvres by six artists from the Beaux-Arts de Paris.

This Saturday, June 22, with the Olympic Games just a month away, the Musée de la Manufacture de Sèvres is opening its doors to the public to showcase its involvement in the world of sport, and in particular its sports-related works. You can discover the trophy vases of the Olympic Games and learn more about their creation during free presentations open to all.
