Tools

Given the plurality of forms that ‘art residencies’ can take, in terms of means, tools, resources and so on, the network offers methodological support through the creation and provision of professional tools.

CODE OF ETHICS

In view of the many different purposes behind art residencies, the structures federated within the Arts en résidence network intended to draw up together a charter formulating common principles, values and commitments. This code of ethics stipulates voluntary commitments which are specific to the federated structures and by which only they are bound. However, it is also intended to provide inspiration for those who would like to set up residencies for artists and/or creative professionals in the future.
