An unmissable art exhibition near Geneva
For this anniversary edition, the deputy mayor and president of the municipal culture commission, Joséphine Ciancia, has shaped a program of remarkable richness. Fruit of a long-term collective work with volunteers from the library and municipal councillors, the 2026 selection brings together 24 artists and five artisans, whose work will be exhibited on the two levels of the multi-purpose hall.
A vibrant and constantly renewed creative panorama
The signature of the event lies in the freshness of its offering: in order to offer visitors a constantly reinvented experience, the organizing team ensures that almost all participants are renewed from one year to the next. Traditional and contemporary painting, sculpture, photography, but also contemporary mosaic, bas-reliefs, woodturning, painting on embroidery, or even digital creation: the eclecticism of forms of expression promises to awaken wonder and inspire beautiful discoveries.
From the ground floor, you will be welcomed by talented artisans exhibiting vegetal creations, scented candles, leather goods, compositions on pebbles, or antique-style collection bears.
Artists meeting the public
The artistic exhibition in Amancy favors a warm, inclusive, and family-friendly approach. The municipality's stated ambition is to leave everyone the freedom to explore the exhibition according to their own curiosity.
Throughout the entire weekend, the continued presence of the exhibitors constitutes the beating heart of the event. They will be available to the public to explain their creative processes, share their passion, and unveil the behind-the-scenes of their techniques.
As every year, students from the kindergarten and primary schools of the village will visit the exhibition on Friday. The day will remain fully accessible to the general public, from 9 am to 7 pm.
A free cultural outing in the heart of the Pays Rochois
Near La Roche-sur-Foron and Bonneville, and easily accessible to visitors coming from Faucigny, Annecy, or Geneva, the artistic exhibition in Amancy is a beautiful idea for a trip on the first weekend of October.
A large parking lot adjoins the multi-purpose hall and both levels are accessible to people with disabilities. On Saturday and Sunday, a refreshment stand run by the Associations of the Maison Pour Tous of Amancy will offer drinks, snacks, and light food.
A free raffle will also allow you to win several works or creations offered by the exhibitors. Do not forget to try your luck during your visit! The draw will take place on Sunday at 7 pm.
Artists wishing to participate in a future edition are invited to contact the municipality at the beginning of the year, with the call for applications generally starting in January.
