Why is the Académie de la Grande Chaumière still closed?

Dear participants,

Many of you have been asking us about the reopening of our Academy. 

As we have already mentioned, the Académie de la Grande Chaumière is one of the programs offered by the Académie Charpentier, a higher education institution that prepares students for entrance exams to art schools and trains interior architects and designers. 

As a result, it was ordered on March 16 to close its doors to the public. This closure is set to last until September, although the Ministry of Higher Education has not yet specified an exact date. 

As soon as we receive this information, we will be sure to let you know how we plan to resume our normal operations, in accordance with the health guidelines in effect at that time. 

In the meantime, we will continue to offer online workshops, which many of you in France and around the world have enjoyed. 

So we're going to spend the summer together!! With some wonderful surprises in store. 

Please feel free to let us know what you'd like; we'll do our best to accommodate your requests. 

Thank you once again for your continued support. 

Best regards. 

Serge Zagdanski
President
