Pupils from the EREA meet Tou­quet­tois artist, Alain Godon

Over 4,000 vis­i­tors have been to see and admire the 120 works of art by Alain Godon which are on dis­play at the Museum of Le Tou­quet until Sun­day. On Wednes­day after­noon, stu­dents from the Berck EREA (regional spe­cial needs school) her­itage club were able to meet the artist. Since the begin­ning of the year, the EREA stu­dents have been study­ing the towns of Berck, Le Tou­quet and Montreuil-​sur-​Mer. They have been trac­ing the past through the local her­itage sites still in exis­tence. When they were pre­sented with the oppor­tu­nity to meet Alain Godon through Sophie Deshayes from the Museum of Le Tou­quet, they were thrilled and pre­pared for the visit. Through his paint­ings, they were able to iden­tify Le Touquet’s church, town hall, mar­ket and the Rue Saint-​Jean.
