"We met, we exchanged, we linked together inspite of our so different backgrounds; all this has been an awesome experience of solidarity and shared creativity.
Through art, we have the opportunity to discover and enrich each other, far beyond the practice. I am delighted and I hope that our art work bear witness to this."
Dominique Richard, plastic artist, Strasbourg, France.

networking & fund raising
We organize punctual projects to strengthen support mechanisms and networks between individuals from different parts of the world. Building community, connecting to our creativity and participating in solidarity movements are strong resilience factors and can help us connect with our resources and support systems.
We understand social support and solidarity as a dynamic and interconnected movement in which supporting others responds beforehand and simultaneously to a personal need. In this logic, we aim to generate creative ways of solidarity taking into account personal needs, interests, conditions - and to transform them into an opportunity for individual growth as well.
