What about going to the Arte Mare festival in Bastia?  During a week, the Arte Mare festival in Bastia offers visitors to learn more about Mediterranean culture, through cinema and other works of art such as painting or music

The oldest Corsican festival

Created in 1982, at the height of the 'Riacquistu' movement, the Arte Mare festival intends to forge links between different Mediterranean cultures and works.
During a week it offers the public to discover cinema as well as other arts such as painting or music. Developed in 1982 by the association of the same name, the Arte Mare Festival is an unmissable cultural event in Bastia which offers moments of art and culture, in the heart of the Mediterranean.

During a week, at the municipal theater of Bastia the public has the opportunity to discover cinematography whose heritage dates back to millennia of stories and images.
If over the decades the Arte Mare Festival has developed its programming through the addition of an annual theme and has enriched its fields of observation the objective remains the same: to forge links between Corsican culture and Mediterranean cultures.

It is therefore a multidisciplinary event which takes place in Bastia since, beyond the cinematographic projections, the Arte Mare Festival also provides debates, exhibitions as well as gastronomic, linguistic and musical meetings; all in a very friendly atmosphere
