With the objective of fundraising for the renovation of apartments at the Cité Internationale des Arts, SANAVA is hosting an online auction of artworks of members of SANAVA. Located at 18 rue de l’Hôtel de Ville in the heart of the Marais district, residents at the Cité use their time there to produce art and develop creatively further. The complex also houses galleries where artists can exhibit their works. Since its opening in 1965, the Cité has accommodated more than 18 000 artists from all over the world.
