Arts workshops for children at the Tattes Residence Center

Fondation Dora will support a three-year project directed by the association Super Licorne to provide arts programming for children living at the Tattes Residence Center.

Beginning in summer 2018, Super Licorne will animate a workshop on paper cutouts. The technique of paper cutouts, which is similar to cartoon drawing, is used to create animated films. Animated film professionals will contribute their expertise.

The Tattes Residence is a collective housing center for asylum seekers. It is located in Vernier in the canton of Geneva and is managed by the Hospice Général.

The goal of Super Licorne is to enable both the children and adults living at the Tattes Residence Center to discover Geneva’s social and cultural environment. They work to create connections, foster both knowledge and opportunities for integration, as well as encourage the independence of the individuals living at the center.
