Art'n Jazz Festival

Art'n Jazz Festival 2025 — Jazz and Painting in the Streets of Sainte-Vertu

The 2025 festival once again brought together Art'n Jazz regulars on the terraces and in the galleries of 44 and 48 Grande Rue in Sainte-Vertu. Over two days, the program blended jazz and blues concerts, a live painting performance by Joëlle Kem Lika, a jazz singing masterclass led by Séverine Guilbard, and open circle song sessions.

On Saturday evening, the Art'n Blues night electrified La Terrasse du 44 with a fiery concert blending acoustic blues and vocal jazz. Sunday afternoon was dedicated to discovery, with a masterclass open to the public followed by a gypsy jazz concert, in the spirit of Django Reinhardt, under the arches of the Contemporary Art Center.

Throughout the weekend, Joëlle Kem Lika's exhibition welcomed hundreds of visitors who came as much for the music as for the art, confirming the festival's multidisciplinary vocation. A late-night jam session extended the festivities until the early hours, bringing together guest artists and audience musicians in a high-level improvised dialogue.
