  The White House in Jette

  Sep 26, 20264 min

  Almost 100 years ago, prolific Belgian architect Joseph Diongre designed a modernist masterpiece, a house known as the Withuis for its white façade. He designed everything from the architecture to the furniture and even the garden . The same family occupied the house for 91 years and the new owner has had the house completely restored. Until November 22 the public will be able to see it both inside and out during guided tours organized by Arkadia. Restoration architect Frédéric Goeminne tells us what was involved. www.arkadia.be

  Brussels Comic Strip Festival

  Sep 16, 20264 min

  The annual comic book festival is one of the most popular events in Brussels so the announcement that it would not be held this year was very bad news. For many years in the Royal Park and then in the Gare Maritime at Tour & Taxis the festival drew people from far and wide, but now it was off the schedule. Stepping in to save the day, Didier Wauters, Deputy Mayor for Economic Affairs for the City of Brussels pulled together a coalition of the very willing. The festival will take place after all, but the location has changed; it's in the central city in and around the Bourse. Mr. Wauters gives us the details. https://www.lepietonnier.com/en/bd-comic-strip-festival/
