Like every year, the wasteland of Playful Chance will be a bit like the Greenwich meridian of the Parisian Christmas markets. Among the three local events, we spotted the one on December 7 and 8 organized by Grrrande, which celebrates women artists and personalities from queer communities.
Activist or Olympic gifts
On the 300 meters of quay, wanderers looking for activist gifts will be able to find illustrations by Alice Koté, in pastel colors like a photo by Martin Parr; the ceramics of Jessica Le Meur; the film photos of scenes from daily life by Mathilde Estebanez; natural, organic and made in France infusions from the Entre Deux Haies brand; or the crochet pieces from Atelier oh mesh.
And for those who still have Olympic nostalgia, head to the stand of the illustrator Alcatela, specialized in reproductions of maps in ultra-vivid colors, and who had been commissioned by the IOC to doodle the events during the Games. And also expect concerts and DJ sets to fidget between two purchases.
When ? December 6 and 7, 2024.
Or ? Hasard Ludique, 128 avenue de Saint-Ouen, Paris 18th.
How much ? €6.50 (Ticket office here).
