CSR and Art at Sibos
We are pleased to announce the Anouk Foundation as our chosen charity for Sibos 2016. Founded in 2008, the foundation’s mission is to create soothing environments for children and adults staying in hospitals, special needs institutions and nursing homes.
We are sponsoring the artists from the Anouk Foundation to produce therapeutic murals at Auguste Buchet, which offers educational programmes for children and young adults with mental and physical disabilities. The artists will also be working onsite during Sibos week to produce transformative frescos that attendees can enjoy.
