La Galerie du Génie is a place full of surprises , violin chords and laughter . On 31 March , La Galerie du Génie hosted a festive inauguration celebrating creativity . The EDITION exhibition brought together a selection of talented contemporary artists and invited guests . An opportunity to introduce EDITH to the world . But first , let ' s go back in time .
2019 . The new must-see address in the heart of Port Louis ? 246 Edith Cavell Court . These historic buildings , which date back to the 18 th century , have been refurbished to pay tribute to their heritage with a contemporary touch . It is now home to an office park , a huge gallery , a select range of shops and restaurants with an appealing culinary twist . All in all , a pleasant atmosphere to stroll around and discover ... but more importantly , to spend some unforgettable moments .
It is obviously a success . This characterful address with its unique atmosphere has everything to please . Everything ? Not according to Lavastone Properties , its director . They have a much bigger vision : to make this place a reference for events and culture in Mauritius .
Welcome back in 2022 . A new vision emerges : 246 Edith Cavell Court becomes EDITH . A short , dynamic name , conveying bright ideas and promises . A name reflecting the venue ' s rich history . EDITH ' s aim is to promote the local art scene and become the capital ' s cultural meeting centre , offering a collaborative and communitybased dimension . Exhibitions , conferences , concerts , culinary festivals ... Ideas abound .
There is no doubt about it : EDITION , EDITH ' s very first event , has made its mark . So , we look forward to the next one !
