Le Festival de Musique

For over 20 years, this renowned music festival has invited well-known musicians from throughout Europe to perform in the Abbey's chapel and historic Manège. This summer concert series welcomes more than 3,000 spectators annually and brings national attention to the local community. The Eur-Am Center offers its resources to this long-standing tradition.

Masters de Pontlevoy International Music Academy

The Masters de Pontlevoy, under the artistic direction of Alexandre Brussilovsky, hosts 11-day workshops for accomplished classical and chamber music students. The opportunity for these young musicians to study with some of the world's greatest virtuosos is enhanced by the chance to perform publicly as solo artists during a student/professor concert series. This series is offered free of charge, allowing greater public access to the rich cultural life of Pontlevoy.

Art Expositions

The Eur-Am Center invites a variety of regional and international artists to exhibit their work in the Abbey's unparalleled environment. In 2005, the organization opened its permanent art installation with the "Windows on the World" series, created by an established American artist in response to the September 11th attacks. This series both supports The Eur-Am Center's vision of promoting global understanding and serves  as the foundation for an expanding art collection on display to the public.

Corporate Events

The Eur-Am Center has hosted several national and multinational corporations at the Abbey for various corporate learning programs. The Abbey's modern amenities combined with its historic and scenic location provide the ideal environment for corporate retreat sessions, team-building exercises, and motivational workshops.

Private Events - Receptions, Weddings

In addition to educational programming, The Eur-Am Center opens its doors to the public, bridging itself to the community. The Eur-Am Center invites visitors to host private events in the Abbey's reception halls, picturesque gardens, magnificent chapel, and other unique facilities. This prestigious location has been featured in numerous publications in the U.S., Europe, and Asia.

ELEE

The Eur-Am Center worked with The European Landscape Educational Exchange Partnership (ELEE) to transform the Abbey's historic gardens into an outdoor living laboratory for design, preservation, and horticulture.
