The museum of Montmartre, near Paris, France, pays homage to "the poulbots", rebellious and cheeky kids drawn by Francisque Poulbot at the beginning of the 20th century.
Alexia's event recreated this village along with colorful streettscapes of shops and artist exhibits.
The poster artist who then lived in Montmartre rubbed shoulders with his street children. He likes to paint them with their caps on their heads like Gavroche. "This district was a source of inspiration for Poulbot. He liked to represent these resourceful and disadvantaged boys who were quickly nicknamed the poulbots", explains Saskia Ooms, curator of the Montmartre museum.
Alexia help us all understand this lovely artist French village, with music and dancing supplied by DJ Dusty. Congratulations, Alexia, on making such a delightful and artistic Sister Event!
