From September 18 to 29, Saint-Tropez pulsed with the 30th edition of the International Contemporary Artists' Fair, a key event for current artistic creation.

From September 18 to 29, the Jean-Despas hall hosted the 30th edition of the International Contemporary Artists' Fair, an event that has been present in Saint-Tropez since 1996. For this anniversary, 30 artists from six countries exhibited their works across the hall's two levels, offering a broad panorama of current creation through paintings, sculptures, and other plastic expressions.
The event also featured the participation of two writers, Jean Le Coz and Odette Muller, alongside guest of honor painter Lucky Lady and sculptor Roland Delsemme. Free access allowed a wide public to discover these works in an open setting, reinforcing the commitment to making culture accessible to as many people as possible.
This anniversary edition also highlighted the dedication of Blanche-Monique Pontet, president of AIDAC, involved since the beginning, as well as all the teams mobilized for its organization. The City acknowledged the contribution of Michel Perrault, deputy mayor for culture, and the Department of Cultural Affairs, for their role in the artistic vitality of Saint-Tropez.
