ArtHouse Jersey and Guernsey Art visit Normandy
From 23 to 25 September, representatives from ArtHouse Jersey and Guernsey Arts travelled to Normandy on a technical visit to gain a better understanding of the region’s cultural fabric. Following a rich itinerary between Caen and Rouen, the delegation visited numerous artistic and cultural institutions, including the Regional Contemporary Art Fund (FRAC Normandie) RN13 BIS, the Usine Utopik, the Centre for Contemporary Creation, ESAM Caen-Cherbourg, Artothèque, Le Radar and Le Point du Jour. As part of the Normandy project ‘Millennium: 2027 European Year of the Normans’, the islands are engaging in artistic and cultural collaborations with the Normandy Region, and these meetings aim to create new contacts to imagine new cooperative projects.
