The Condition Publique defines itself as a cultural laboratory. With this, it wants to transform its project as a public institution, taking inspiration from other places and bringing together all aspects in a new way.
A creative community of cultural associations, artists, craftsmen, social initiatives, media projects, etc. work here. It offers working spaces and shared workshops. In addition, since 2020, with the support of DGMIC (Ministry of Culture), it offers accompaniment for cultural entrepreneurs.
Several art projects are accompanied here, especially in the field of urban art. A street art course extends around the Condition Publique and also on its roof.
There are numerous exhibitions, visual performances, panel discussions and conferences in designated spaces such as the gallery, observatory and glass roof. The stage and a production and rehearsal space are open to all. Finally, in the Condition Publique there is the Bazaar, a store for records and program-related products, as well as a café-restaurant whose colorful decoration recalls the industrial past of this place.
Opened in May 2004, the new Condition Publique is a providential cultural venue in a region where contemporary artistic creation lacks visibility. We welcome the initiative of its initiators and bet that they will effortlessly ensure the continuity of this latest "cultural manufactory".
