Current events
With the arrival of its new manager José Manuel Gonçalves, the 104 has reorganized its communication and offers - from the beginning of December - an arts festival, with the arrival of the grand merry-go-round by François Delarozière, from the Royal de Luxe; a sort of artistic Christmas market!
Informations :
The CENTQUATRE is a new Paris city council artistic establishment and a unique place devoted to production and innovation. Located in the 19th arrondissement on the site of the former Municipal Funeral Services, this 39,000 m² space is an ensemble of unique architecture and a place where art meets the general public.
Directed by Robert Cantarella and Frédéric Fisbach, this establishment gives the public a new perception of the arts of today. The CENTQUATRE is versatile, responsive, vibrant, open to all, a venue for talks, meetings and discoveries. It combines monumental architecture with modern interior spaces and offers an innovative cultural adventure. All types of art are present through resident artists and festivals.
The CENTQUATRE also houses businesses, a cafe, a restaurant and nearby public facilities for amateur artists and children to practice their skills. The CENTQUATRE is a new venue open to all since 11 October 2008.
Artists regularly hold meetings with the public. These are a great occasion to get an inside view of an artist’s work through talks, presentations of works, readings, public rehearsals, etc. These meetings require an admission fee. The CENTQUATRE organises sports activities and dance classes (some of these are free of charge).

Garden :
A place to relax, pass through, meditate, each year the CENTQUATRE garden welcomes landscape gardeners and visual artists who work with the vegetation to change the look of the building. With the changing seasons their work will contribute to the life of the CENTQUATRE. Surface area: 460 m².
Situated on either side of the stables, the English courtyards are home to the Coloco installation. In collaboration with local associations and local residents, these architects and landscape gardeners have designed a community garden that will evolve over time. They harvest numerous plants grown by partner gardens and reorganize them three times per year. The English courtyards are not open all the time.
