In recent years two boats moored at the Quai des Péniches have been multiplying cultural events and festivities.”

Famous quotes containing the words artistic and/or commitment:
“Persons grouped around a fire or candle for warmth or light are less able to pursue independent thoughts, or even tasks, than people supplied with electric light. In the same way, the social and educational patterns latent in automation are those of self- employment and artistic autonomy.”
—Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)
“Adolescents need to be reassured that nothing—neither their growing maturity, their moods, their misbehavior, nor your anger at something they have done—can shake your basic commitment to them.”
—Laurence Steinberg (20th century)
