Cité internationale des arts, Creative residency in Marais, France
The Cité internationale des arts is a creative residency providing studios and living quarters for artists at two locations in Paris. The facility offers workspace for painters, musicians, writers, and performers in separate studios equipped for different artistic practices.
The institution opened in 1956 to support international artists in their professional development. Over the decades, it built partnerships with organizations from over 60 countries to expand its reach.
The residency brings together creators from different countries and disciplines who work side by side in their studios every day. You can experience spontaneous collaborations and see artists presenting their work in the shared spaces.
The location is easy to reach and you can visit to see the studios and meet artists working there. Some areas have restricted access, so check the opening times before planning your visit.
The facility includes specialized workshops such as a print studio and an auditorium where residents can present their finished work. These additional spaces allow artists to share their creations with a wider audience.
