As an institutional partner, we invite you to contribute in one or more of these key areas:
Residents support: Creating residency fellowships and awards for artists and cultural professionals: including financial support through partnering on funding applications, sponsorship requests or donations from individuals, foundations, corporations, government agencies, etc. This also includes creating opportunities for artists and cultural professionals at risk and those based in less economically developed regions.
Programming support: Development of curated arts residency program and events. Local organizations are invited to propose creative projects and to facilitate artistic programming of events and activities at the atelier for both professional audience and the public (relevant contacts and guest experts, professional research opportunities, etc.). International partner institutions are encouraged to organize additional opportunities for residents upon their return from Paris to share residency experience and outcome with your local community (exhibition, talk, publication, project, etc.)
Heritage support: Preserving the remarkable architectural and cultural heritage of Atelier 11 Cité Falguière to ensure its sustainability for generations to come.
Communications support: Outreach and visibility of L'AiR Arts and Atelier 11 via your communications channels (social media, website, newsletter, etc.)
Partner Benefits
International arts residencies benefit both the local arts community and the arts sector globally. Artists and cultural professionals who take part in an international residency not only have an opportunity to participate in cross-cultural exchange and showcase their work abroad but they also return with knowledge and ideas which can then be applied in their own arts practices and communities. This directly contributes to the global creative ecology.
L’AiR Arts would be pleased to develop a customized benefit program for partner organizations. Benefits can be arranged on a case-by-case basis and tailored to support specific needs, such as:
- Partner Residency: named fellowship / award residency
- Selection committee: an opportunity to participate in nominating and selecting residents
- Special events: an opportunity to co-host/organize exclusive events and participate in the residency activities (open studios, exhibitions, talks, etc.)
- Recognition: website, social media, press and related channels & materials
Marketing opportunities: product or service promotion - Cultural patronage / corporate philanthropy: an opportunity for tax advantage, while strengthening and multiplying cultural, economic, and social impact.
L'AiR Arts also collaborates with Paris-based schools and universities to provide intercultural exchange opportunities for children and youth.
