The Villa Saint-Louis Ndar residency program is aimed at researchers, thinkers, writers and artists from France, Africa and the French-speaking world, both experienced and recently graduated from training schools.

Anchored in a territory of rare cultural and historical density, the Villa is a laboratory of interculturality, which promotes dialogue between local and international creators. The residences of the Villa Saint-Louis Ndar are backed by essentially local, regional and sub-regional concerns, and therefore offer all artists and researchers working in connection with them a privileged space for expression on Sahelian issues. including the Sahel region and the Senegal River valley.
