A Guided Visit to the Kanal-Centre Pompidou
Saturday, January 26, 2019
1:15 p
.m.

The American Club of Brussels proposes a unique cultural immersion in the former Citröen garage, an extraordinary building of steel and glass and a masterpiece of Brussels’ industrial architecture in the 1930s.  

The result of a partnership between the Brussels Region, the Kanal Foundation and the Pompidou Center, Kanal-Centre Pompidou is designed to become the largest cultural institution in Brussels, with 35,000 m2 devoted to artistic creation in all its forms.

Before the building transformations, and the final opening in 2022/2023, Kanal-Centre Pompidou showcases an exceptional cultural heritage, rich in history and preserved in its current state. Benefiting from collections from the Centre Pompidou, the former Citroën garage hosts several exhibitions mixing visual arts, design, architecture, major installations and creations by Brussels-based artists, as well as a program of performing-arts shows.

Before the visit, why not enjoy lunch in the Kanal Street Food Market, opened as of noon. Flagship stores such as Pistola, Wild food truck or Le Bar à Vins on nearly 500m² offer the visitor a wonderful journey to the land of taste.

Come and admire a unique Brussels landmark, where industrial space and contemporary art merge masterfully.

Please note that this visit is limited to 15 people.
