About the project

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

The idea of the Poulancre House is to value the participation of everyone in all tasks, everyone participate. In a democratic and structured way, it is to allow the life of a group for a limited but intense time: a sober but convivial and festive daily life. The Cultural Association of Boquen organizes meetings in various venues based on themes of society, concrete questions and preoccupations. It alternates with encounters that tackle subjects that allow each one to express a spiritual quest in the greatest openness. From the most prosaic work to the many forms of artistic expression, manual activities play a role of self-discovery, of nature and of others.

💼 What the programme involves

A. restoration of building of the old farm of the 16th century. 1. Exterior : masonry for catching stones that come off beautiful walls 2. Interior : paints and plaster. B. clearing of the wastelands on a place that holds an old bread oven still in good condition.
