Villa Tamaris Centre d’art TPM
Images and wonders
This art centre, overlooking the bay of Lazaret, is dedicated to the visual arts, concentrating on photography and video. Yann Arthus-Bertrand and, last autumn, Peter Lindbergh lit up these walls with their vision... Willy Ronis is expected this summer. The villa regularly hosts artists in residence.

La Chaudronnerie
Curtain raising
It’s the place to be for great entertainment: theatre, classical or popular music, gipsy jazz or opera, the programme is dense and eclectic. A place where you can meet friends for a drink before a performance. Meetings, conferences, a springboard for local artists with the La Ciotat en Scène festival (2 to 6 May), and exhibitions...

In the spotlight
The oldest cinema in the world, still in operation, is open to the sea and committed to traditional and innovative 7th Art.

The 40th edition of the Festival du Premier Film Francophone de La Ciotat (7 to 11 June), also referred to as the Berceau du Cinéma, brings together filmmakers and the public with screenings, short films, European films and films shot in the South of France.
