A yearly line-up of cultural events open to all
Throughout the academic year, the Artistic and Cultural Activities Department (fr. Service d’Action artistique et culturelle) organises a range of events: live performances, exhibitions, film screenings, concerts, and more.
These events usually offer free admissions and are open to everyone: staff, students and the general public.
Students also have the opportunity to participate in numerous artistic workshops throughout the year, taught by artists and culture professionals.

Encouraging Students’ Creative Energy and Activities
The Artistic and Cultural Activities Department encourages and supports new ideas, projects, and cultural initiatives of students, especially through the Solidarity and Development Fund for Student Initiatives (fr. Fonds de solidarité et de développement des initiatives étudiant.es or FSDIE). This dedicated fund gives students the opportunity to build their own artistic or cultural project (theatre, dance, music, writing, film), independent of its relation to an academic assignment.Learn more about the Solidarity and Development Fund for Student Initiatives (in French)
