Agence d’Evénements Culturels

Organizer of art fairs
and cultural events

Organizing art fairs
is our core business.
We have been doing it with passion
for 35 years.

Since the launch of the Salon du dessin in 1991, through to the launch of Paris Tableau in 2011 and Fine Arts Paris in 2017, we are proud to celebrate 35 years of expertise.

Formerly known as the “Société du salon du dessin”, the Agence D’Evénements Culturels has created and organized 49 fairs, mounted 35 exhibitions in collaboration with collectors and cultural institutions, deployed 34 off-site routes in collaboration with Parisian and Île-de-France museums, organized 31 conferences and symposia which resulted in 23 publications.

The Agence d’Evénements Culturels is led by a consortium of 9 art dealers, associated with the Les Echos group.
