on 1936, Sommières organises big(great) one popular party(holiday) to inaugurate the installation of the catchment basin in the court(yard) of the castle of Sommières. At that time, the access to the modernity passed before the respect for heritage.
On 2018, Sommières demolishes(destroys) this obsolete become catchment basin. Reservoirs will make room for a beautiful court(yard) which will soon be done up to restore its splendour in the castle of Sommières.
To celebrate the demolition of reservoirs, the Spring of Pierre de Sommières and the City of Sommières organise Space chât' water. During three days from 14 till 16 September 2018, on the occasion of European Heritage Days and in a festive atmosphere, artists will transform both reservoirs of water into work of art and the public will be able to participate in it. Become more attractive before demolishing(destroying) in a way, a paradox. A bit as were he(she,it) these reservoirs in the court(yard) of the castle …
Friday will be reserved for the artists who will transform tanks one of the two and the public will be able to attend their work. On Saturday and Sundays, the public and especially the young people, will be able to intervene and give free rein to their creativity by participating in the artistic transformation(processing) of reservoirs.
But Space chât' water is not only an artistic party(holiday). Other attractions are planned(provided for), as a wall of escalation(climbing), a slackline, bowmen, exhibitions photos, a refreshment bar, etc. Everything to pass(spend,cross) a right time. And, wink(allusion) to the demolition of the wall of Berlin, a cellist will play on Sunday owing the painted tanks, as had made it Mstislav Rostropovitch in front of the wall of Berlin.
[STOP_TRANSLATION]Cette fête sera relayée par Radio Sommières et la page Facebook Vide chât’eau vous informera pendant tout l’été.
