Overview

Art is worn, art is danced!

For this exceptional late-night opening, the public is invited to dress like an artist to discover the temporary exhibition The Artist's Fabric. From Rosa Bonheur to Sonia Delaunay, in a festive atmosphere. Painter's smock, lavallière tie, studio costume: everyone is free to interpret the elegance and fantasy of artists in their own way. A photobooth allows visitors to immortalise their outfit and leave with a souvenir of this unique evening. Flash tours of the exhibition are offered at 6 pm, 6:45 pm and 7:15 pm (registration on site), to discover how artists turned clothing into a true means of expression. From 8 pm to 10:15 pm, time to dance! After an introduction to 1930s swing dances offered by teachers from the Shake that Swing school, participants can take to the dancefloor to the rhythm of lindy hop, charleston or jazz. Throughout the evening, the Le Rhodia cafe-restaurant offers light refreshments or a menu specially designed for the evening. Come in costume and bring the most daring silhouettes in art history back to life for one evening! Evening programme:

6 pm - 9 pm: access to the exhibition, with three flash tours (30 minutes) upon on-site registration at 6 pm, 6:45 pm, 7:15 pm (last entry at 8:15 pm)
