20 years of rebirth and civic engagement
In June, the neighborhood was celebrating the 20th anniversary of the rebirth of Mas Sainte-Marguerite.
Over the years, this emblematic place has transformed into a true beating heart for the municipality, bringing together generations and initiatives around the values of openness, solidarity, and sharing. Driven by the association La Renaissance du Vieux Mas, chaired by Anne-Marie Rinaldi, this site has become in two decades a pillar of the local community fabric. Powered by its 200 members and volunteers, the association contributes throughout the year to keeping this place alive through events, workshops, and local actions.
Present during the festivities, Hélène Arnaud-Bill praised everyone's commitment: "Thank you to all those who keep this spirit of openness, solidarity, and friendliness alive, faithful to the Gardéenne soul.
A highlight of this day was the presentation of the fresco "Mains d'enfants", a touching collective project carried out by 170 students from Pauline Roland and Paul Langevin schools. Engraved with the first names of their young creators, these colorful prints now adorn the steps of the Mas, embodying the creative energy and hope of the new generations.
