Mons, European Capital of Culture, has taken on an incredible challenge: to open five new museums and a concert hall, all in the same year! The result is almost 10,000 sq m of new exhibition and audience space available in Mons. And at the same time some 15 urban art installations  will take over the city until the end of the summer.

A new, completely liberated generation of artists will hurtle into Mons when the city opens its new museums! And their works will spread contagiously to every square, street, blind alley and key location of the European Capital of Culture – a series of sudden apparitions that confront you as you round the street corner, and which it is up to you to interpret however you choose.
