‘Molière's ’La Grande Lessive‘ or ’La Grande Colada'.

The Molière takes part in this world cultural event

The Lycée français Molière is taking part in La Grande Lessive® or ‘The big wash’. This event was created in 2006 by Joëlle Gonthier. It is a biannual international cultural event. It takes the form of an ephemeral artistic installation made by everyone. Like hanging clothes, ‘La Grande Lessive®’ aims to bring art to the street and to the people, to link society with artistic practice. Since its creation, more than three million people of all ages and from all walks of life have participated, in 72 countries on five continents. Twice a year, clothes lines are stretched inside or outside sites chosen by local institutions. Schools, art schools, town halls, museums, media libraries, libraries, hospitals, nursing homes, parks, companies, neighbourhoods, public places, streets... On the day of La Grande Lessive®, the people who frequent these places are invited to hang a creation (drawing, painting, collage, photomontage, photograph, visual poem...) in two dimensions with the help of clothes pegs or clothes pegs.
