Campus Arts

Call for proposals closed

As part of IDEXLYON, the Université de Lyon is launching a call for projects designed to promote student creativity, foster cultural practices and encourage artistic expression.

GOAL

To demonstrate the role students play in the vitality and cultural fabric of the campuses. The project also aspires to illustrate the many contributions students make to the artistic world and their potentially symbiotic relationship (concerts, expositions, digital art, readings, performing arts, film projections, etc.). The projects submitted for the Arts and Culture Days (JACES) will contribute to increasing the attractiveness of the Lyon Saint-Étienne site.

  • All projects must be led by a student or a group of students (individually or within an association) enrolled in one of the member institutions of the COMUE;
  • If a project is selected, groups of students will be asked to form an association. For individual projects, please send an e-mail to vie.etudiante@universite-lyon.fr prior to submitting your application;
  • A performance must be given during the 2019 JACES event, on April 2, 3 and/or 4, 2019;
  • Project leaders must secure a performance or exhibit space when they submit their application or have one available during the 2019 JACES event;
