Lumières sur le quai aims to mobilize people from the metropolitan area of Toulouse and the Occitanie region on the subject of the various conceivable futures we can imagine, as well as the consequences of the choices and actions we make at present. In order to build desirable futures, what research should be prioritized? What technical and societal innovations should be encouraged? What new ideas should be explored? To address these questions, the festival invites scientists, artists, citizens, and makers to share and co-create, with the public, their research, reflections, and creations.
The festival conclusion coincides with the ending of the annual exhibition presented at the Quai des Savoirs, marking the end of the cultural season.
