Normandy Impressionist Festival in Regional
Normandy's Impressionist Festival links exhibitions and outdoor events across dozens of towns, from Rouen to Le Havre to Monet's gardens at Giverny, tracing the coastal light and landscapes that shaped Impressionism. Running from late spring into early autumn every few years, it pairs period paintings with contemporary responses to the same scenery.
The Normandy Impressionist Festival spreads exhibitions, guided walks and public events across dozens of towns throughout the Normandy region every few years, tracing the landscapes, ports and light that drew Monet, Boudin, Pissarro and other Impressionist painters to the area in the nineteenth century.
