‘Founded in 1991 by Gérard Garouste, La Source is an association with a social and educational mission pursued through artistic expression. Artists have always been its driving force. Throughout the year, they lead workshops with children and young people facing difficulties in their social or school lives. Artists support special events such as Festin, which enable the association to raise funds and continue its work with children and young people.’
