Échos gourmands – designed and coordinated by the Arts multiples collective and the Trait d’union & point-virgule cultural center – is an artistic and cultural project linked to the theme “World cuisine and music”. Started in December, the actions will take place until February at the La Vallée-du-Cher nursing home.
Multiple Arts aims to set up artistic projects bringing together residents and artists. The desire is to work locally, in collaboration with local structures or establishments. Hence the choice to bring together residents of the nursing home, local residents aged 60 and over (in connection with the Maison pour tous) and CE1s from the Arthur-Rimbaud school.
