Clisson is truly a city of fhttps://cinema-leconnetable.fr/FR/118/festival.htmlestivals. In addition to the incomparable Hellfest (extreme music)Clissonnantes (classical music), Autumn Trestles (theater), the Constable (movie theater) or even Italian (street arts), has just been added Festiverde.
This latest addition does not only have a cultural vocation unlike the others: he will also take on a strong environmental dimension by putting the plant in the spotlight. It will take place from Friday October 18 to Sunday October 20.
But be careful, political divisions will have no place during this event. The approach to the theme is intended to be consensual.
It is one of the three organizing structures, with Solid et la Cause, an eco-artistic association of around twenty years recently established here.
Because we know that the ecological topics are often debatedeven controversial in Clisson.
This meeting should encourage citizen, intergenerational and also scientific meetings on a subject whose urgency no longer needs to be demonstrated. Everyone must take charge of the fight against global warming. Plant protection is a shield
We want an educational approach that is sensitive and harmonious. With sharing of ideas above all on how to renature urban centers, protect trees and develop plants.
Assembled in just six months
It is also the sharing similar values within the three associations which launched the idea of this festival. ” In barely six months », insists Gaëlle Romi. Everyone used their network. So the program could have been much more substantial. “We limited ourselves,» adds Niels Adde. “For questions of time and especially budget”.
The three days will be punctuated by nearly thirty activities. Distributed across three sites: Garenne-Valentinthe Cordeliers cultural center and in the heart of the city. With a similar construction: moments of observations in the morning (hikes, walks, etc.), then moments of reflection (conferences, cinema, etc., activities for everyone afterwards (climbing, silvotherapy, etc.), and finally shows and music in the evening.
