More than 350 artists and persons in charge of structures call this morning on the Franceinfo site to "reopen all cultural places to the public", while the Council of State examines this Monday the case of theaters and cinemas, and tomorrow that of museums.
Prime Minister Jean Castex announced on December 10 to maintain the closure of cultural places, despite the end of confinement on December 15.
This due to epidemic pressure and for an indefinite period, at least until January 7.
"Culture is not a sector like any other"
“By keeping cultural venues closed, the government is preventing thousands of people from working and thus worsening the economic and health crises our country is going through.
We demand the reopening of theaters, cinemas, concert halls, museums, circuses, etc.
“, Plead the signatories of the platform, among which the actors and actresses Bruno Solo, Andrea Bescond, Virginie Lemoine, Sara Giraudeau and François Morel.
"Culture is not a sector like the others" affirm in chorus these personalities, who argue that it "responds to the irrepressible need to dream" and that it contributes to "the mental health of the French" , at a time when it is deteriorating.
"There has not been more cluster in the cultural world than elsewhere", also add the signatories, who appeal to citizens: "We need you.
You are the resonance of this call.
