On ... Art Horse: Anne Marie LeFlaive, Painter whose figure of the horse is omnipresent. His encounter with this animal has been made since childhood and still continues through a regular practice of horseback riding. If her painting follows in the footsteps of cubists or wild animals (in a play of convex and concave shapes, sometimes even geometric), she also endeavors to reveal what is happening in the relationship with this particular mammal: a link that requires great humility, which leads to questioning oneself and to questioning the relationship to nature that surrounds us.
An artist to discover !!!

Ackerman House is pleased to welcome the violinist March Mallow in the heart of its cellars.
The group March Mallow, with various musical experiences, takes you back to the Jazz of the 50s. March Mallow brings back to life the music of Nat King Cole and Billie Holiday. An authentic jazzy sound, reproduced by the recording techniques of the time, plunges you into the black and white atmosphere of New York clubs. With Astrid Veigne on vocals, Eric Doboka on guitar and Christian d'Asfeld on piano.
For lovers of the 50s, ladies & gentlemen, welcome to MARCH MALLOW!
Occasionally, the Ackerman cellars offer you to taste their cuvée Crémant de Loire Blanc de Noir.

Hello all,
The English speak to the Londoners of the CARRE… It's been two months since we settled and we owe you some news! I will therefore let the first photo speak for itself… The children are jumping for joy… or almost! We admire their adaptability and love their uniform! Côme (2 years old) who did not speak a word before arriving, enjoys school a lot and has made very good friends. Margaux (9) was very well received in her class, English goes a little over her head but it is not her priority. Sybille (13 years old) has a lot of pressure because she takes the GCSE at the end of the year (exam equivalent to the baccalaureate but they prepare over 15 years so she has 2 year of lessons to catch up on). But it is not us who are putting the pressure on him because we want above all to enjoy our year. We intend to do as much tourism as possible and have already started: Brighton, the south coast with the Seven-Sisters, the castles, Canterbury and even went to GoodWood (the English equivalent of the 1h of Le Mans Classic), Porthmouth, Arundel. ..
Our daily life is also shared with tennis because, after English, it is our other priority of the year. The children have 2 lessons per week and every Friday evening we have Club Night: 3 hours of double with change of partner every 1 / 2h which ends with the curry. We are discovering how tennis is a social sport in the UK and it contributes a lot to our integration which is going wonderfully.
Finally, we are about to find a job ... which will allow us to deepen our knowledge of the English language because we must admit: we thought we were pretty good, but there is still some way to go to understand the English on the phone and movies!
In conclusion, we love the English, their calm, their kindness and their politeness at all times ... we will try to bring a little bit in our luggage to share it with you, we promise.
It only remains for me to wish you to enjoy my dear jars because I must admit that I miss them a bit… especially when I see the menus go by and the creativity that always emerges from them!
