MAISON FLEUVE

The new cultural and artistic project proposed by the cneai = at the Maison Fleuve infuses the territory through various programs, including the Maisons Volantes, which land in schools, and the Maison Monde, which hosts international cooperation projects. By bringing together artists, researchers, residents, and institutions, the Maison Fleuve affirms an approach focused on inclusion, ecological transition, and archipelagic resonance.

TRANSMISSION AND ECONOMIC MODEL
– If you want to develop your economic independence and/or pass on your skills and research, we offer a free classroom space where you can develop workshops as you wish.
– We recommend courses on this basis: €300 per school year (mid-September > mid-June), 1 hour of class per week (excluding school holidays), a group of 10 young people = €250 per month on average = a rental cost of almost €0.
– These workshops for young people (teenagers) and adults also help to infuse practices and skills into society.

A BUILDING RISING FROM THE GROUND
– By renting, you are participating in the art center’s artistic and cultural project.
– Your presence helps to ensure the long-term presence of artistic and cultural actors in the region and the development of the sector’s economic model.
