The Japenese always come up with phenomenal, simple TV concepts that are highly amusing. In Old Enough!, children go on errands all by themselves for the very first time as a camera crew follows along. For example, in the fist episode, a 2-year-old boy is entrusted with grocery shopping. It may take a moment for his brain to kick into gear sometimes, but he gets there eventually. Now available on Netflix, making this a great family get-together show.

What: Luxembourg art from and inspired by the 60s
Where: Villa Vauban, 18 Av. Emile Reuter, 2420 Luxembourg - Google Maps
When: Every Saturday at 3pm - more info
Take a guided tour in English through an exhibition dedicated to the works of Berthe Lutgen and Michel Daleiden, two Luxembourg artists that were prominent figures in the 1960s. In 1969, the two painters organised the first cooperative exhibition of contemporary art alongside other artists, an informal group nicknamed Initiative 69. Berthe Lutgen and Michel Daleiden followed different paths, both geographically and artistically. But in various ways their art retained a connection to the subversive force of the revolt of the late 1960s.
