To accompany the celebration of the dance group Es Corbilhuèrs, RISE UP is excited to bring its Travelling Exhibition to the beautiful town of Les. We will join the day’s festivities of “Mès de 75 ans de danses en Les” – More than 75 years of dancing in Les, and present our exhibition for visitors to see on the third stop on its journey across Europe. The event is open to all ages, we will have games in Aranese for young people, and other activities to be confirmed soon (watch this space for more updates!)

About the exhibition: RISE UP commissioned an artist from each of its 5 selected minority/minoritised language communities to create an artwork that communicates a unique message, an image, or a feeling to the viewer. Our five artists were asked the questions: What would you say to your community? What would you like to say to people from outside of your community? Alongside the artwork will be informative panels about each language, where we can come together to learn about each other’s cultures, languages and lived realities.

Please spread the word and join RISE UP and the local community in Les for this day celebrating the joy of dance, Aranese language, and artists from minority communities. The exhibition stays in Les for one day only, before travelling on to its next location. All exhibition information is available in Aranese, Spanish, and Catalan. Our deepest thanks to the Ajuntament de Les for hosting us!
