As a follow-up to my post on the lack of tourists in Avignon, it seems that their very good tourist office has lots of activities to tempt visitors to the town.
This weblink has details of what’s happening: http://www.ftp-avignon.com/acad2016/SUMMER2016/SUMMER2016GB.htm
‘Luminessences d’Avignon’, the 35 minute show on the history of the town during which the whole façade of the Papal Palace is illuminated, will be running from 10th August – 2nd October. Booking is
open!
The South of France. Enchanted by the deep blue of the Mediterranean, the olive trees, poppies, irises and that dazzling light, artists found their creativity flourished under the hot sun. My new book takes you on a journey visiting museums and galleries as well as artists’ studios and their favourite painting spots. From Van Gogh in Arles, to Signac in Saint-Tropez; from Cézanne in Aix, over to Nice for Renoir and Matisse, the story unfolds of artists who knew each other and painted together in the warm south. Prepare too to meet colourful local artists who captured their beloved Provence for us to enjoy.
