Hello everyone and welcome to Provence! 
Emily is a British volunteer with the Abbe Photo Association. I had the pleasure of meeting many of you in Roquebrune. Our Italian volunteers, Brian and Alex, left us at the end of July in search of the lavender fields of Provence.
I took over to help François organize visits to the Maison Abbe and launch the Provence Heritage page on Instagram.
Besides, follow the new Instagram page ?
In total, my stay here will last two months, and I am delighted to discover the region and meet its inhabitants.
I read that in France, we officially mark the end of summer and the beginning of autumn on 21 September.
Heritage Days (16 and 17 September) last chance to visit the exhibition
Although the market is coming to an end, our visits continue and our latest exhibition « Works and days » is always available for reservation for Heritage Days on our site abbe.photo.

🌙 It was the last Night of the Creators 2023
This summer, we were very present on the famous « Nocturne of Creators » of Roquebrune. This market took place on Tuesday evenings in July and August 2023. From our stand, we have surveyed the streets, discussing with the inhabitants and tourists the rich history of Provence and the mission of Abbe Photo. It was a great success and a good way to make the association known. We organized visits in English and French on Tuesday nights (a big thank you to Nadia for her invaluable help)! Thanks to the teams that make this event possible (including another Emilie!).
Join us on social networks, especially on Facebook and our Instagram page launched more recently.
