CurieuCity takes over the House of Cultures in Molenbeek on 12 October for a special edition, alongside the I Love Science festival, with a programme around robotics.
We will organise a lively day of interactive shows, creative workshops and immersive experiences to explore robotics in all its forms, combining technological innovation and artistic creativity.
The programme includes a fun physics and chemistry show, Ugo Dehaes’ “Simple Machines” workshop on robot dancers and a cryptography workshop to unravel the secrets of coding. From making robot costumes to eating 3D printed crepes, the day promises to be full of discoveries for young and old alike!
About CurieuCity
CurieuCity is a new arts and science festival coming to Brussels this year. It offers scientific, artistic, and educational activities, partly in public spaces and in collaboration with local initiatives
CurieuCity cultivates curiosity and wonder in everything that surrounds us individually and collectively. It’s a festival that aims to combine the scientific rigor of universities with the experiential impact of art, STEAM education (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics), and socio-cultural action.
Each edition of the festival addresses a theme inspired by the reality of the neighborhood where it takes place. In Molenbeek, we explore the city of the future; in Vorst, the festival focuses on life in the Wiels Marsh neighborhood and biodiversity in the city; and in the Marolles, the emphasis is on STEM disciplines.
