The CROUS
The Opéra national du Rhin works with the student association CROUS in Strasbourg to organize a performing arts program for students who are new to the field.
Dance at the University
Each season, the artists and ballet dancers of the OnR offer campus workshops in Strasbourg and Mulhouse, where they perform choreographies to highlight the key points of each piece and get in touch with the students. For more info, contact: pnocera@onr.fr
Academic stars
The Cercle Gutenberg plans to bring together the University of Strasbourg, the Maison pour la science en Alsace, the OnR, and school teachers for "Les Étoiles du savoir." This project will allow interested final-year pupils to meet leading academics from the region in a relaxed setting before they go to university.
Strasbourg loves its students
Every year the OnR invites around 50 university students as part of the "Strasbourg aime ses étudiants" project. Students get free tickets to a show and can attend future events at a reduced rate, if they hold a Carte culture.
Information desks
To build ties to its future audience, the OnR visits an event at the campus restaurant Resto’ U Esplanade every year. For more info and dates for the 2018/19 season, contact: jeunes@onr.fr
