Summer – Study in Provence

Arles River Students

About the Program

The charming Provençal town of Arles, with a 2,000-year-old Roman arena at its center, is famous for its impressive Roman and medieval sites, picturesque streets, and association with Van Gogh, Gauguin, and Picasso. Many music, photography, theater, and folklore festivals take place in and around Arles throughout the summer, making it a vibrant location for study abroad. Immerse yourself in French language practice and the rich cultures of Provence, while living like a local. Practice your French with IES Abroad professors and staff at language-intensive lunches. Fridays are reserved for course-related activities and trips: concerts at the Roman theater, visits to Aix-en-Provence or Le Pont du Gard, museum visits, and more.
