THE BLURBAlone or in a crowd, come make new friends, talk about what floats your boat and share who you are in a relaxed, unpretentious and informal setting. Drop the bags, escape the hordes and grab a fun afternoon break from the Xmas grindstone

THE CONCEPT
Held at both regular and alternative venues, with different themes and events each month, Le Salon/Is-Salott, aims to revive the great tradition of the 18 and 19th century Italian and French open salons.
An intimate and animated cafe on the move if you like, encouraging social interaction,
and the meeting and exchange of ideas, concepts and artistic expression.

WHO's INVITED
Singletons, couples, friends, significant others, flaneurs, swingers, tangeros, poets, writers, artists, musicians, painters, foodies, film makers, amateurs, jacks of all trades, jacks of none, the lost, the found, the jaded and the blasé, the enthusiastic and doe eyed..in short everyone.

You are an artist of your life, shaping your destiny with every decision you take. Here at Le Salon, we believe, it is who you are that counts, not what you do. You don’t actually have to produce anything or fit into any category to be an artist. You are an artist by virtue of how you express yourself, by dint of who you ARE

WHAT TO BRING
A short story, a piece of prose or a poem you'd like to share (the theme is 'belonging' but it doesn't have to be). You may have written it or it could be by a favourite author of yours
Any music from the 30's 40's or 50's you'd like to hear played
Dress up in retro, roll up your gloves, wax your moustache, don your trilby and iron your pleats or don't bother at all. It's up to you. Feel free

VENUE
A friendly, relaxed and eclectic atmosphere in a Maltese house of character in Rabat

PRICE 10 euros (includes scrumptious high-tea, glass of port, ambience et al)

"The kind of conversation I like is one in which you are prepared to emerge a slightly different person."
