Every Saturday at Fondation H in Antananarivo, from 10 to 12pm, free events are offered to the general public, which can take many forms: conferences, open discussions, "subjective tours" during which a panelist (usually an artist or curator) is invited to offer a guided visit of acurrent exhibition according to his or her personal interpretation, meeting or workshop with a resident artist, poetry readings, performances, family guided visits, creative-workshops for teenagers and adults, etc.
Occasional events are also organized for audiences with disabilities at these times. Those include visits in sign language, or visits adapted for people with mental disabilities, open to the general public or by registration. These events are built in dialogue with schools and friends associations of Fondation H such as the integrated classes of EPP Analakely, the associations Madatriso, Avana, Fikambanan'ny marenina sampana Analamanga and Jeunes et Sourds d'Antananarivo.
Two or three times a year, a public program activates and enriches the exhibitions. Concentrated over 2 or 3 days, inthe beginning, during and sometimes towards the end of the exhibition, the public program consists of discussions, round tables, lectures and multidisciplinary artistic performances involving artists and professionals from the local and international art scene.
This program, proposed by Fondation H in close collaboration with the exhibition curators, aims to expand and explore the subjects explored in the exhibitions, and give the public access to a multiplicity of forms of reception and reflection on the themes addressed.
