Candidate List to Mercure Association

  • Perla Jourdan

For 69 years now, the Mercure association has been organizing the traditional Mercuriale Gala, the largest student gala in France: it brings together nearly 3,000 people with a budget of 300,000 euros. Our team was made up of 20 members. During the election campaign, we had to imagine and concretize the whole project which is articulated around two parts: the mandate as well as the gala. To do this, we wrote two books (a mandate and a gala), recreated all of our gala decorations in ESSCA's halls, and wrote and produced a play in keeping with our theme. The "Event" committee's objective is to organize all of the events taking place during the term of office in order to raise funds for the association's key event, the Gala. These events are parties, after-works, reunion weeks and others. I am also a member of the "Decoration" committee. This committee is in charge of imagining and realizing all the decorations related to the theme chosen for our gala.

Here you can watch the aftermovie of the team that organized the 68th edition of the gala. It will allow you to understand the magnitude of the event.
