L'Usine, Cultural center in Geneva, Switzerland
L'Usine occupies a former gold roughing factory building in central Geneva, featuring concert halls, art galleries, theaters, and multiple creative spaces.
The center emerged in 1989 when the collective 'Etat d'urgence' transformed an industrial building into a space for artistic expression and community gatherings.
The facility houses 18 different collectives and associations that organize concerts, exhibitions, theater performances, and cinema screenings throughout the year.
Visitors can reach L'Usine by taking bus line D to Palladium stop or tram line 15 to Stand stop in central Geneva.
L'Usine maintains a self-managed structure where all decisions about programming and operations are made collectively by its resident associations.
