Art de Vivre: Living Artfully, Embracing Life

Artists, collectors and décor enthusiasts from the region will converge at “Art de Vivre: Living Artfully, Embracing Life”, taking place on June 29th and 30th from 10 am to 4 pm at Verger de Hudson Bio, 839 Main Road, Hudson QC.

Organized by a collective of local business owners and artists, this exhibition of carefully curated art and vintage home décor pieces promises to create an immersive environment where art, aesthetics, and environmental consciousness converge. The event is open to the public and attendance is free.

The singular Art de Vivre event aims to celebrate life through the union of art, nature, and curated home experiences. Set amidst the picturesque apple orchard of Le Verger Hudson Bio, the semi-outdoor group art exhibition will pair sophisticated antiques and curated art pieces by eight unique artists. The exhibition will unite diverse creatives and business owners with the goal of fostering a community centered around art, home decor, and sustainability.

“We are so excited to be hosting Art de Vivre. It aligns perfectly with the vision we had when we founded the orchard 20 years ago,” said Anick Joanisse, co-owner of Le Verge Hudson Bio and a member of the Art de Vivre Hudson organizing collective. “Hudson is known for its active arts scene, reputation as a destination for antiques, and leadership in sustainable living…this event combines all of those things.”
