We're exploring 10 years of Refugee Food's history!
After a decade working towards fairer, more sustainable, and more diverse food, Refugee Food is showcased in photos at Ground Control. Ten years of history, faces, know-how, and gestures of hospitality are captured in a series of snapshots featuring the people making this community thrive. These images of banquets, community kitchens, and refugee cooks demonstrate that with a simple gesture – extending a plate, sharing a meal… – we can weave connections, combat insecurity, and welcome those who are rebuilding their lives.

We sing Dalida at the Madame Arthur cabaret
Pigalle without Madame Arthur is just not Pigalle anymore. In this legendary Parisian cabaret, you can enjoy a sensational show with live piano and vocals. This time, the fabulous performers invite us to explore the repertoire of our national diva, a.k.a. Dalida. Because instead of “Mourir sur Scène,” she comes back to life for us on the cabaret stage for a few nights, singing over and over again “Gigi l’Amoroso,” “Paroles Paroles,” and “Bambino.” It promises to be a wonderful evening!

We're going to see the artworks!
Since last October, the Petit Palais has been inviting us to discover Paname, a contemporary art carte blanche dedicated to the painter Bilal Hamdad. With large oil paintings, often inspired by candid photographs, the artist explores urban solitude through Parisian scenes. On this occasion, about twenty works – including two unseen pieces – are on display in dialogue with the museum's permanent collections, offering a brand new perspective on the Petit Palais's artworks.
