Presentation

Since its foundation in 2019, Making Waves has been committed to amplifying the voices of youth, with their questions, doubts, and aspirations. A heterogeneous and complex youth, graplling with the disorders of the world, full of expectations and contradictions. We will place our microphones in the heart of the cloître Saint-Louis every day to allow young adults to question the world and put their words on what happens to all of us, transforms us, invigorates us, or sets us on fire.

Stirring the stones

Why choose creation to tell the real story? Would writing, music or the stage be more faithful messengers of intimate experience than direct expression and testimony? Do these practices allow us to emancipate ourselves, to bring to the surface buried stories and to better share all that haunts us?
