Located in the heart of the Saint-Martin - Tournezy district, this new multidisciplinary space embodies the meeting of art and community life, with a mission to make culture accessible to everyone. Born in 2022 as part of the Imagination Permits program, Restanque is the result of a bold vision: to transform an industrial space into a place where urban and contemporary art can meet, share, and reinvent itself. The project came to life in 2023 with the signing of a construction lease with SERM, ensuring a sustainable presence on this exceptional site.

A unique space dedicated to creation and connection

Restanque consists of multiple spaces designed to inspire creativity and foster exchanges. Visitors can enjoy a 90 m² café-restaurant, a spacious patio for relaxation, and beautiful outdoor areas complete with a pétanque court and 500 m² of terraces. Artists will benefit from 500 m² of workshop space.

lieu and offices, including three offices, twelve workshops, a 70 m² art gallery, and a 45 m² classroom.

500 m² of outdoor spaces and landscaped terraces

The grand opening will showcase the artistic worlds of LineUP residents, featuring a collective exhibition at the Cilas gallery, murals, and artistic interventions scattered throughout the venue. The completion of the work is expected in spring 2025.
