A look back
Dear artists, dear partners, dear friends of the Festival du Dessin,
The third edition of our festival, which ended on 11 May, exceeded our expectations with a remarkable 25% increase in the number of visitors to all the exhibitions. This success testifies to the growing interest in drawing in all its forms, and to your attachment to our event.
We were delighted to welcome a curious, loyal and diverse public, who got fully involved in the many events on offer: guided tours, workshops for young and old, evening events, signings, round tables, screenings, concerts, shows, not forgetting our convivial closing weekend lunch.
None of this would have been possible without your presence, your commitment and your enthusiasm.
It is thanks to the collective involvement of artists, curators, institutions, lenders and rights holders, partners, the public and our team that this edition has been able to shine so brightly.
A huge thank you to all of you for helping to make this human and artistic adventure such a great success. Translated with DeepL.com (free version)
