Calls for creation

A regional fund for the creation of contemporary tapestries was established in 2010. It is supported by the Regional Council of Nouvelle-Aquitaine, the Departmental Council of Creuse, and the Creuse-Grand-Sud Community of Communes.

Presentation

In this context, a call for creations is launched every year. The winning works are intended to be woven using the tapestry techniques of Aubusson, recognized by UNESCO. The tapestries and their designs are added to the collection of the Tapestry Museum, thus enriching it with high-level contemporary pieces.
