The Union des Artistes continues its fight to defend the interests of its members. The union has affiliated with the International Federation of Musicians to get more support.
Always in need of recognition, artists do not give up. They can recently count on the support of the Union of Artists, a union under the presidency of Joëlle Coret: “One of our priorities is the recognition of the status of artists. We have worked hard in this direction and we have been able to convince the State to give artists the financial aid that self-employed people were entitled to during the confinement. That’s a good start, but there’s still a lot to be done.”
With this in mind, the union has affiliated with the International Federation of Musicians: “This federation is based in France and will help us better structure our actions. In addition, it regularly organizes seminars that will certainly better equip our members in our fight for recognition of artists,” says the president.
Note that the Union des Artistes is currently working on the first directory that will bring together the coordinates of all local artists.
