Founded in 2015 by Lotfi Aoulad, the mission of the association Das Relais is to create connections through culture and the arts, as a powerful way to enhance and share experiences. The association works for well-being and inclusion, building bridges between the diversity of artistic expressions (design, visual arts, literature, music, and dance) and local communities in a given area. Since its creation, Das Relais has brought together public and private partners around innovative projects, placing art at the heart of dialogue, innovation, and societal transformation.

The relay builds ecosystems in which culture becomes a lever to support social transformations. The association's goal is to bring people together, create, and thrive.
