COLLABORATION

The Society encourages an active discourse with members of the artistic community looking to develop or promote projects concerned with, or related to, the Dreyfus Affair, human rights, and the combat against antisemitism and racism. Assistance for professionals looking to develop events or bodies of work in this area can be made either through access to the considerable contacts, resources and archives of original material available to the Society, or by means of co-production arrangements.

Conversely, the Society solicits the support and energy of enterprising artists, directors, and producers who may be interested in collaborating with the society on planned or new ventures which explore the realms and origins of historical and contemporary antisemitism and racial prejudice.
