artistic residency at chalet lecoq

As part of the CreArt network, the City of Clermont-Ferrand in France is organising a two-month residency for 3 visual artists at Chalet Lecoq from 26 October to 20 December 2026. It will select 2 artists from the CreArt network and 1 from Clermont-Ferrand.

Both in the centre of town and in an atypical location in the middle of a public garden, the Chalet Lecoq invites reflection on the relationship between nature and the urban, in a place frequented by residents of all ages (families, students, senior citizens, and more). The Chalet Lecoq is the former janitor’s house of the Jardin Lecoq, a park located in the heart of the city. The Chalet welcomes international artists in residency throughout the year. It offers a privileged setting, with a two-bedroom apartment and a fully equipped workspace.

For this two-month residency, le Chalet Lecoq will host the two European artists for the accommodation and workspace, and the Clermont-Ferrand artist for the workspace.
