We need your help all year around.
Here are the various current topics in which you can get involved.

LIFE OF THE ASSOCIATION · REVIEW OF THE RELEASE SATURDAY APRIL 30, 2022
Saturday April 30, 2022, 5 volunteers and 4 members of the Festival team took part in a cultural outling in Rennes.
In the program:
- Visit of the exhibition "Un village - Madeleine de Sinéty" - right image
- Conference "Very important volunteers" with the Collectif des Festival - left image
Yannick Mahéas (volunteer and member of the association) and Flora Gervais (ancient administration and public officer) took part in a round table presenting the results of a study carried out over the past 3 years with 5 other Breton festivals. What relationship do volunteers and festivals have? What motivates volunteers? The obstacles to their engagement?
From this long-term work, the Festival will propose a roadmap to do better together with all of you.
