Queer Community Clothing Swap. Summer 2026 Edition. Free event.

Exeko propose une série d’ateliers ouverts à tous et toutes, invitant à se rencontrer, créer et réfléchir ensemble. Ces activités prennent place au cœur d’un espace vivant et pluriel, en dialogue avec les jardins et les initiatives de verdissement du site.<br />
<br />
À travers différents médiums artistiques tels que la poterie, la teinture végétale et l’artisanat, utilisez des éléments de la nature urbaine pour confectionner des œuvres variées. Ces ateliers sont aussi une invitation à éveiller les sens au rythme des jardins. Le tout dans une ambiance apaisante et décontractée, faites une immersion sensorielle et créative au cœur de la ville.

Relaxing concerts to round out the weekend.

New this year: end your weekend on a gentle, beautiful note with intimate concerts, mostly instrumental or acoustic. Experienced musicians invite you to beat the Sunday blues by letting yourself drift into contemplation and discovery, as jazz, chamber music and bossa nova are played in a relaxing setting – perfect for one last al fresco evening before diving back into daily life.
