Aix en Provence
Known as the City of Water and Art, Aix is a picturesque spot in the heart of Provence. Birthplace of the painter Paul Cézanne, Aix has captivated many other artists through the centuries with its natural and cultural heritage. As if Aix itself wasn't enough, there is also plenty to explore in the vicinity: Arles, the Camargue, the Gorges du Verdon and much more.

The school is located in a charming turn-of-the-century building in the heart of Aix, about five minutes walk from the shops and restaurants. It offers fifteen classrooms all named after famous writers or famous places in Provence, a computer room, a reception area and a lounge with a library looking out onto a sunny terrace.
