The new school year is set to be as busy as it is fabulous in Montreuil. The reason? The opening of a brand new space entirely dedicated to solidarity and second-hand goods, which will also offer a series of workshops. Its name: La Venelle. Driven by nine associations, this "solidarity reuse village" will bring together shops as well as a café-canteen. Let us explain.
Eight shops where you'll find hidden gems
Clothing, furniture, decor, electrical appliances, toys, and even audiovisual or sports equipment... In the eight shops of La Venelle, you'll discover everything you want or need, second-hand to promote reuse, and at great prices. To make this happen, Atelier R-are, Emmaüs Défi, Emmaüs Coup de main, Envie, La Collecterie, and the resource center of the show will be there.

Workshops to prioritize recycling and reuse
In addition to the various items available for sale, some shops will organize themed workshops. With Atelier R-are and La Collecterie, there will be an activity focused on upcycling, while with Envie, this will be...
workshops on co-repairing household appliances. At La Ressourcerie du Spectacle, you can learn self-repair with a tool bar, with Nepture, you'll become a pro at upcycling sewing, and with La Recyclerie Sportive, bicycle repair will hold no secrets for you. The schedule for the various workshops is already available on La Venelle's website.
A café-canteen space for a delightful break
If you come to La Venelle to shop, you’ll also be happy to stop by to take a break or grab a snack. With La Parallèle, the café-canteen at La Venelle, you can enjoy a space to eat or settle down to enjoy a moment of relaxation or get some work done. After theDuring work hours, there will be afterwork workshops organized to learn screen printing, woodworking, or DIY projects. A library space will also be set up there. You could say we've found our new HQ for the start of the school year!
