Through the seasons
Making culture flourish
Culture as a vector for social cohesion &.
ecological
FIFES is committed to promoting culture as a factor in the personal development of individuals, and as a vector for social and ecological cohesion.
The festival is a wonderful tool, enabling audiences, artists and works of art to meet, exchange and share in a joyful, convivial atmosphere.
That’s why we work hard every day to offer all our audiences high-quality activities that create these encounters, foster the pleasure of being together, share our languages and build common values.
We have chosen to offer these moments to all audiences, from the earliest age, and to join forces with children’s professionals to design actions in line with our mutual interests.
That’s why each season we offer a cycle of performances for young audiences, to complement our festival programming, as well as a wide range of educational initiatives that can be integrated into artistic and cultural education programs.
The educational project
Films for growing up with ecology and social issues
As part of its mission to promote artistic and cultural education, every
season our structure offers film screenings for young audiences, available as school screenings with
enriched educational content to help teachers and
students approach and understand the ecological and social approach.
A place for experience and exchange
Our structure is positioned as a place of experience and exchange, and our actions focus on the complementary nature of the experiences offered to the public.
LISTEN – LOOK – PERCEIVE – EXPERIENCE – FEEL
the relationship with artworks
DO – EXPERIMENT
Artistic practice, linked to personal activity
REFLECT – CRITICIZE
Making the experience your own
