La Nuit des Musées is one of the highlights of the Parisian cultural calendar. Each year, this event invites you to enjoy a fabulous program of exceptional nocturnes, free visits and original activities in the museums, monuments, châteaux and fine institutions that lend themselves to the game. Whether you're with your family, your friends, your partner or just on your own, there's something for everyone at the next edition, scheduled for Saturday May 17, 2025.
Fancy taking advantage of the Nuit des Musées in Hauts-de-Seine? Well, there's a great program on the menu in the 92 department. In the town of Colombes, the Musée d'art et d'histoire de la ville is also taking part in this cultural event. The museum showcases the works of artists who have lived in Colombes, while tracing the city's history - closely linked to the 1924 Olympic Games. And it's sure to delight sports fans too! So, why not find out what's in store for us on Saturday, May 17, 2025?
Gilles Rochier teams up with a storyteller to take on a daring challenge: illustrating a piece of art described by his partner, engaging the audience in the process. Throughout the evening, both artists bring a museum masterpiece to life through imagery and storytelling. Dreaming, sharing, laughing—this event promises a memorable experience, with surprises in store and a fresh perspective on the collection!
Open to all. Free admission and no reservations required.

Gilles Rochier, dessinateur et auteur de bande-dessinée autodidacte qui réside à Colombes, croque l’univers de la banlieue qu’il connaît bien, sans tomber dans les clichés des cités. En 2012, le Festival International de la Bande Dessinée d’Angoulême lui décerne le prix Révélation et il est nommé Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres en 2023.
Le Musée d’Art et d’Histoire lui ouvre ses portes avec [résident].
L’exposition donne à voir l’univers créatif drôle et sensible de l’artiste, dans un décor monocolore et une architecture omniprésente des grands ensembles. Depuis la création de son fanzine En vrac, en 1996 jusqu’à ses influences, on peut y découvrir ses premières planches, son parcours et ses collaborations avec d’autres dessinateurs, Fabcaro, Nicolas Moog et Fabrice Erre.
A great night out in Colombes! And to complete your evening's program, discover the other events planned in the department.
