The Campus Arts Festival in Saint-Étienne and on the Tréfilerie campus

The Campus Arts Festival is being held as part of the Arts and Culture in Higher Education Days, usually referred to in French as "JACES" days (Journées des Arts et de la Culture dans l’enseignement supérieur), for which nearly forty events will be organized over three days on the Lyon Saint-Étienne university sites.

To celebrate the Tréfilerie music festival, musicology students from the Université Jean Monnet in Saint-Étienne would like to invite you to three creative project events, in partnership with professional musicians and composers, with three concert evenings you do not want to miss out on.
