Artist residencies support the personal and innovative artistic approach of an artist or collective, opening a space for research, creation and transmission within an educational institution. These artistic and cultural education projects are carried out in close partnership with the educational teams of the schools, for the benefit of all students.
Device overview
What is the artistic and cultural territorial residence?
The territorial artistic and cultural residency in schools aims to:
- participate in the development of arts and cultural education
- build a collaboration between artistic and cultural professionals, educational teams and a large number of classes
- deepen partnerships on a territory, complementing other existing mechanisms
The residence is intended to open and shine on a territory. It can therefore concern several schools. In this case, a pilot institution must be designated to run the network of associated schools and ensure the establishment and operation of a joint monitoring committee. A residence can thus contribute to federate the relations between schools, colleges and high schools of the same territory.
More broadly, the action of the residence can reflect on that of a diversity of actors of the territory (recreation centres, youth and cultural centres, neighbourhood houses, social centres, associations, medical and social centres, youth justice protection units, hospitals, retirement homes, etc.). The residence must bring together a significant number of students and a multidisciplinary team of teachers within each school concerned.
Objectives of the approach
The objectives of the territorial artistic and cultural residence in a school setting are:
- help reduce inequalities in access to art and culture
- allow as many people as possible to understand the creative process whether it is related to contemporary creation, heritage or scientific culture, or school programs
- open to another vision of the world and develop the student’s critical thinking
- to provide a unifying artistic and cultural education for children and young people and their families
- contribute to the artistic and cultural development of the territory (heritage, public reading, museums, cinema, theatre, dance, music and choral practice, etc.) by integrating the project into a local (communal, inter-communal, etc.) and participatory dynamic (public, schools, municipal and associative structures), while mobilizing the educational community

The call for projects "Research and creation residency in school territory" is proposed and subsidized by the Directorate of Cultural Affairs (DAC) of Reunion.
The artistic project is conceived as a sharing of the act of creation and the research process associated with it. It offers a space for openness, reflection and meetings, with students and teaching teams as stakeholders. It includes a time of transmission to young people and restitution that can be done in or outside the school. The articulation and porosity between act of creation, sharing and transmission are at the heart of the identity of this program.
It is addressed in a privileged way to one or two classes of the school or the host institution while spreading more widely throughout the institution and the territory (social cultural structures, local actors), especially during the restitution times. The project can open to other devices: open school, plan Wednesday, ...
Particular attention will be paid to projects taking place in the territories furthest from the cultural offer: rural areas, Circuses, Hauts de La Réunion and the priority education network.
Research and artistic creation projects are real levers to achieve the goal of 100% EAC and contribute to strengthen the school-college-high school link.
During your research and creation residency in school territory, please provide in your detailed schedule a slot on which you will invite the EAC advisor (on one of the intervention times and/ or restitution).
Prior to any grant application, please contact the EAC advisors of the DAC to guide you in the construction of your project.

Projects previously supported
«Faire chemin» is a multidisciplinary project offering a sensitive approach to the territory through walking, photography, sound and writing.
The project makes it possible to create photo novels from the accumulated material, relying on cultural events, the networking of actors by echoing their workshops to the cultural effervescence of the territory.
Partnership with: lycée professionnel et des métiers Adrienne Bolland(pilote)/ Collège Les Châtelaines de Triel-sur-Seine, Collège Flora Tristan de Carrières-sous-Poissy, Collège Jacques Cartier d'Issou, Collège Galilée de Limay, Collège René Cassin de Chanteloup-les-Vignes, Lyée Camille Claudel de Mantes-la-Ville, IME The White Butterflies of Conflans-Sainte-Honorine, IME Beuil-Bois-Robert de Beuil-Bois-Robert.
C R A F T is a contemporary creation, an immersive and participatory video-dance project, which aims to create videos around choreographic creations, through different workshops of artistic practices (choreography, dance, video, etc.).
Students go to discover rare crafts in professional high schools and training centers, «collect» the gestures inherent to these trades, translate them into choreographies, and then make videos from these choreographies.
This project is conducted in partnership with the Centre Pompidou.
Imagine a group of young people left to themselves in the absence of any adult. What would their discussions be about the state of our world, what would they want to change? How would they want to imagine their future? Alone or in groups, they could replay conflicts, struggles, dreams, fantasies, whether they are of extreme beauty or cruelty, wonder about their desires, their utopias, and denounce through their ideals the belligerent antagonisms that tear our contemporary societies apart.
We wish to organize a General State of Utopias with students to invite them to reflect on what their ideal society would be, and in doing so, to question their ability to respond to the mistakes of their elders. We will ask ourselves whether the utopias carried by the new generations are motivated by a construction or a deconstruction of our society… and what project of utopias articulating writing, theater, visual arts, digital arts, they will create during this residency.
