Nursery residencies

This unique residency format — one of a kind in France — is the result of a partnership between the Pôle, the CAF des Ardennes, and several local nurseries. It offers artists the chance to explore creation and experimentation with very young children in a research-creation context.

The residencies in nurseries are open to professional puppetry artists working on projects intended for children aged 0 to 3 years. Puppetry may be explored in all its forms, including its intersections with other art disciplines.

The call for applications for the 2026/2027 residencies is closed.
Next  in March 2027 for the 2027/2028 residencies.
