Mission

Le RAR a pour vocation de rassembler des compagnies et des artistes de rue qui exercent professionnellement leurs disciplines artistiques sur des sites au cœur de l’espace public et/ou en dehors des lieux culturels conventionnels. Il valorise le travail de ses membres issus de différentes disciplines artistiques et œuvre à leur soutien en mettant à disposition une diversité d’initiatives qui soutiennent leur développement. C’est avec audace, excellence et authenticité que la culture de la performance dédiée à l’espace public trouve au sein du RAR un soutien fort.
