The Saturdays, November 13 and 20 at 2:30 PM. Free guided tours to discover this place of art and culture in the heart of the city of Nice.
As part of the event “WELCOME TO YOURS” organized by the Regional Council of Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur, the Villa Arson in Nice invites you on Saturdays, November 13 and November 20 at 2:30 PM.
Program: A guided tour allows you to discover the entire site, the architecture labeled as 20th-century Heritage, the gardens and terraces, as well as an interactive model of the architecture in 3D images.
A monument of the 20th century and a vantage point over the city of Nice, Villa Arson invites you to discover its history, its gardens, its architecture—labeled as 20th-century heritage—and the connection it maintains with heritage as an institution dedicated to art for over thirty years, bringing together a national higher school of art, a national contemporary art center, and artist residencies.
Located on the Saint-Barthélémy hill, Villa Arson occupies a 2-hectare estate. This architectural complex, built amid a Mediterranean garden, includes the former 18th-century residence of the Arson family, now nestled within modern constructions of concrete and pebbles designed in 1970 by Michel Marot. The visit to the 3,500 m² of terraces arranged as hanging gardens is the highlight of this discovery and offers a surprising view of the entire city of Nice.
Starting November 18, to be seen:
Exhibition “HIC / THE EXHIBITION OF THE FORM OF IDEAS”
at the National Contemporary Art Center, every day except Tuesday, from 2 PM to 6 PM.
Free entry.
