Contributor blog post by Aixcentric:

Just having posted an image from the current Van Gogh exhibition in Arles reminded me that there are big changes afoot for the town.

The Luma Foundation is building a cultural complex on the site of the former railway sheds …Continue reading here for the balance of Lynne’s post on how this art-focused development by Maja Hoffman is changing the skyline in Arles.

Aixcentric was set up by Lynne Alderson three years ago as a channel to send out info on events taking place around Aix as well as news, relevant books, the latest films, new shops and of course where to eat locally. Why?

According, to Lynne:

"It came about out of frustration with the lack of communication in the town. Posters would suddenly go up about an event that week. No prewarning. I had difficulty too in finding information from many of the tourist offices. Things are slowly getting better and there is sometimes information in English. Hopefully by keeping an eagle eye on the local press and talking with contacts in town, I can publicize fun things that people would otherwise miss. It's a ragbag of info that I come across on my travels. I've published nearly 600 posts now and have lots of followers so hopefully, it is fulfilling its role of helping people, residents and visitors alike, get the most of their time in Aix."
