Lots of choice for outings this weekend: a major cartoon festival, ‘open-doors’ by artisans, free rally car racing or a purely Provencal goats festival.

Fete de la Chevre
Posted in Patrimoine, tagged Fete de la Chevre, Rognes on April 3, 2014| Leave a Comment »
To add to all the activities in Aix this coming weekend (see last post), we have the Fete de la Chevre in Rognes which takes place on Sunday.
Last year le petit-fils Aixcentric was so happy to be there patting the goats and trying out the cheese. A good event then for tots and their families!
The whole village will be en fete – I love these local events which could only be in Provence. As the French say, Profitez!

Art in the South of France; the inside story
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.

Aix-en-Provence The Inside Story
My first book tells the story of this fascinating town and introduces .some of the characters who have lived here. With a focus on people rather than buildings, history is unravelled through anecdotes with lots of suggestions of what to see when you visit.
