Program Description

Studio Faire is a contemporary art space in South West France, providing residencies for all types of creative practitioner. The residency is based in a beautiful ‘Maison de maître’ built around 1840 and still retaining its period characteristics. Situated in the market town of Nérac, in the stunning Lot-et-Garonne region, on the northern edge of Gascony, here you will find the ‘real’ unspoilt France. Medieval Villages are surrounded by green rolling hills that lead your eye to the horizon via fruit orchards and vines. Residents live and work in the house, studios and gardens of Studio Faire. The ‘Usher Hall’ is a live/work space. It is a HUGE room and has a beautiful marble fireplace. It has two big windows onto the front of the house (road side), providing plenty of natural light from the North. There are shutters on the windows, so if you want to shut out the world, this is also easily achieved! Offering all creative practitioners a change of pace and the space to create.
