Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before registering

For organizational reasons, most events require prior registration. 

These are commented concerts organized as part of Mental Health Weeks, in collaboration with the ASBL "Artists for Mental Health". This event brings together artists and the public for an evening focused on reflection, creativity and sharing. Each artist is given a blank canvas to address the mental health theme in their own way, through stories, song lyrics or personal reflections. The objective is to create a space conducive to sincere dialogue and to highlight the role that music can play in expressing and supporting emotional wellbeing. A unique approach to addressing these topics through culture !

This year, we are celebrating the 5th anniversary of this exceptional event which attracts renowned artists to Niederanven every year!

The courses are aimed at anyone wishing to learn how to recognize the signs of a mental health disorder and offer initial support to a loved one. Various courses are offered in different languages, which span over several days. Additionally, a first aid course in mental health is offered specially for adolescents.

Priority is given to residents of the Communes of Betzdorf, Junglinster and Niederanven.
