Selecting and making appointments

Once the application period is closed, the Carré sur Seine team will select the applications received.

Successful applicants are notified of their selection and of the terms of participation by e-mail.
Candidates are invited to indicate a minimum of seven and a maximum of fifteen names of experts they would like to meet, as well as their availability, using the form they will receive following their selection.

Once all the artists have expressed their wishes and indicated their availability, the appointment scheduling tool will automatically go through several iterations to maximize the match between the artists' requests and the experts' schedules. The aim is to enable as many artists as possible to meet the professionals they want, and to benefit from a maximum of five appointments.

Artists will then be invited to confirm or reject appointment proposals by return e-mail.
They will have to validate the appointments by making the online payment.

In order to avoid abuse and preserve the peace of mind of the experts, any solicitation of an expert on behalf of the Rencontres Artistiques or Carré sur Seine is strictly forbidden and will result in cancellation of the artist's participation without reimbursement.
