Description

Located close to a socially marginalized urban area and rural zone, Arcade promotes fine arts and contemporary creation, trying to capture the attention of an audience with usually little access to the world of culture, by organising exhibitions, various actions in collaboration with schools and fine-art workshops for adults and patients of the hospital of Fougères. Arcade collaborates with the network of public libraries of the region and the neighbourhood boards of the city of Fougères in order to create collective projects.
