Inauguration of Le Quatre: a new cultural, artistic, and civic space in Les Acacias

Le Quatre opens its doors in the heart of Les Acacias!

Imagined as a space for encounters, conviviality, creativity, and civic engagement, this new cultural venue—led by the association topos—is deeply rooted in the dynamics of its neighborhood.

For its first cultural season, Le Quatre will offer a rich and diverse program: projects by both local and international artists, emerging and established, as well as initiatives imagined and carried out by the residents and users of the neighborhood. At the crossroads of generations, cultures, and artistic practices, Le Quatre positions itself as a space of resonance, where differences meet and become a shared wealth.

By placing the public at the heart of the project, we want every participant to become a key player in the cultural life of the venue—and, above all, in the collective building of the neighborhood’s story!
