13-02-2024 Last Sunday on the show: Artistes du Monde for kids Seven artists with all kinds of roots have set up a non-profit organisation close to Flagey to bring people together around art. With a focus on children's activities. "For example, drawing, music, theatre and yoga. We have a summer school and sometimes read books on weekends. It's really an open space for everyone." Report by Jose Huedo. Watch the report Photo club Viewfinders Founded in 1994, Viewfinders Photography Club of Brussels is an enthusiastic group of photographers from a wide range of backgrounds. English is the language of communication, and everyone is welcome.   "Viewfinders organises one evening meeting a month and also a number of photo walks, usually on Saturdays. We go to a place no more than 100 kilometres from Brussels, spend the day together, have a good dinner and then share our photos." Report by Michael Chia. Watch the report La Parla at Full Circle Brussels The concept behind La Parla is simple. All participants write on their name cards what languages they speak. If someone's card says Italian and you want to practise that language, you can start a conversation. "Once my friend said: I'm trying to learn Mandarin, but I probably won't find anyone. As it turned out, two other people wanted to speak Mandarin that night. I was surprised, but it was wonderful to see." Report by Méabh Mc Mahon, Jin Dubois. Watch the report Writer Tola Ositelu British writer and researcher Tola Ositelu moved from London to Brussels on a hunch. Only to find out that this is the right city for her, both for writing and singing. "I started my second blog at the end of 2017, when I moved to France. And it was a bit of a social experiment, because it felt like a major change. I was moving to mainland Europe and wanted to capture the culture shock." Report by Napoleon Ramos.
