“Help” device
Do you care about supporting and encouraging young professionals in the visual arts?
Created in 2022, the device Boost, allows graduates of Ensad Limoges to benefit from a first contract offered by partners who are cultural places or companies established or not in New Aquitaine. During the graduation ceremony, an exhibition of the graduates' work allows partners to meet them and make their choice.
In 2022, 8 contracts were signed.
In 2023, 14 contracts were signed, including 8 with new partners. 21 graduates benefited from them.
In 2024, 18 contracts for 26 graduates were signed for residencies, exhibitions or productions, including 9 with new partners.
In 2025, 18 graduates benefited from a Coup de pouce residence.
Some organizations have regular residency programs and can finance artist remuneration, per diems and production. If necessary, Ensad Limoges provides an additional €1500 per month.
