ABOUT THE DISSIDENT SALON
The Dissident Salon is a weekly gathering for poets, writers and provocateurs, in keeping with the rich history of international literary salons in Paris and the Dissident Club’s mission as a home for dissidents worldwide. As usual, the salon features a guest performer, followed by an open mic for local writers to share their work. This season, we’ll introduce an additional generative writing workshop one Tuesday a month, as an expansion of our communal creative space.
We’ll see you at the microphone!
When: Every Tuesday, 20h – 23h, starting 1 Sept. 2026. Signups start at 20h, first set at 21h
Where: The Dissident Club, 58 Rue Richer 75009
