Where are they? Tours to discover women artists
For International Women’s Day, the AWARE association (Archives of Women Artists, Research and Exhibitions) is partnering with several cultural institutions to help people discover a still-unknown and rarely shown part of 19th, 20th, and 21st-century creation: the works of women artists.

The Marta Pan and André Wogenscky house-studio in Saint-Rémy-lès-Chevreuse is also joining this event.

Madame Vacances stays from €99
On March 8, in honor of all those ladies who work to plan the “perfect” vacation for their family or group of friends, Madame Vacances is giving them a little helping hand in their search by offering vacations at €99 a week on a selection of destinations by the sea, in the countryside, or in the mountains!
From March 8 to 15, Madame Vacances is offering a selection of 600 stays for the period from mid-March to early July, starting at €99 at 13 destinations. As soon as the batch of €99 stays is sold out, Madame Vacances offers another one which this time goes to €129/week, then €149, and so on until the weeks reserved for this operation are sold out. That’s pretty good news, right?
