Horschamp has developed various activities based on data and analyses supplied by the resource center and by its correspondents abroad :

• Meetings in different parts of France enable the discovery of local initiatives led by artists and social actors.

• Micro meetings aim at putting public audiences, social actors, and artists to work together.

Various publications exist on the subject of art / society : transcripts of meetings organized by Horschamp or the REFLEX (E) group, the review Cassandre and its special issues.
