The French Embassy in Benin announces the recipients of the second edition of the programme “Inspiration Bénin – Au cœur des mondes africains” (Inspiration Benin – At the Heart of African Worlds).
This residency programme, developed in collaboration with MansA – Maison des Mondes Africains in Paris, with the guidance of Marie-Cécile Zinsou, and in partnership with the Beninese Agency for the Development of Arts and Culture (ADAC), is implemented by the Institut français of Benin.

Building on the success of the first edition of the artistic residency programme Inspiration Benin – At the Heart of African Worlds, the French Embassy in Benin continues its commitment to contemporary creation with a second edition, which will run until 30 April 2026.

This programme, developed in collaboration with MansA – Maison des Mondes Africains, reflects and supports the growing interest in Benin expressed by artists from around the world, particularly those from African diasporas.
