About the project

ISSOUNDUN – Artistic Summer Tuesday’s

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

The Local Mission and the Youth Information Desk are two organizations taking care of the Youth coming from Issoudun. The Local Mission, within the “Youth guaranty” program, organizes projects for youth in inclusion. The Youth Information Desk inform and guide youth in projects connected to young people in general, and especially projects on mobility and European citizenship. Together, both organizations wanted to build a common project to gather young people from Issoudun and people coming from abroad in a workcamp. The workcamp of Issoudun has the purpose to create a giant fresco with youth from the city, and the organization of the “Summer Tuesdays”, and outdoor festival open to everyone during the august period. Artistic expression and creation are the center of the workcamp but participants don’t need to have any specific competences. We learn by doing. Some collective time: animations, exchanges, give the possibility to share and discover the life of young people from Issoudun, their leisure activities and local initiatives.

💼 What the programme involves

You will create a big fresco with youth of the city, and you will involve in the organization of the festival.

📍 About the location

In the countryside of the Berry region, in the outskirts of the Cher County, Issoudun gives a rich architectural heritage. From the Middle-Age to the Renaissance, there is also the “Hotel-Dieu”, hosting an archeological museum on Celtic civilization. The “Music box”, a modern music centre, multimedia library and artists’ residencies are part of the local cultural life.
