The Société lorraine d'astronomie is a major meeting place for astronomy enthusiasts and professionals, whether they are curious or in love with the sky. Located in the Faculty of Science and Technology in Vandoeuvre-lès-Nancy, the association has a dome, but public observation evenings are often organised in the countryside to benefit from clear skies. During the major annual national events (Nuits des Étoiles, Science en Fête, etc.), the members of the association are available to the public for evenings of discovery accessible to the greatest number.

Every year, in the Sainte-Marie park, more than 120 craftsmen, horticulturists, gardeners, nurserymen, landscapers, gather for a weekend to show you their beautiful crops and their latest creations.

Each year, the association Relaxation and Culture in Argonne organises an exhibition on the lavender fields in the "grand" washhouse of Lavoye.

The exhibition also traces the history of these buildings, their method of construction and the need for each town for having a wash house from the 18th century.
