Nous sommes L’Été Laboratories

Nous Sommes L’Été is a non-profit whose mission is to create a space for research and creation that actively listens to the needs of the live arts community. Every year, NSL hosts a movement laboratory, which is a gathering of artists in which you are invited to create or share an experiment with other artists who share your curiosity and creative desires. The laboratories are organized by our teams in Montreal and Quebec on the principles of generous listening, encounters and exchanges and access to space.

There is still time to join many different activities: creation groups (listed below), workshops, dance for all and our hive activities (included in our the participation rate).

These groups can welcome additional collaborators and interpreters:
