The Foundation
THE FARMO, the Society of Friends’ Foundation
Created in April 2020 by the SAMO under the auspices of the Fondation de France, the Fondation des Amis pour le Rayonnement des Musées d’Orsay et de l’Orangerie (Foundation of Friends for the Advancement of the Orsay and Orangerie Museums), also known as the FARMO, holds a distinct, complementary mission to that of the SAMO.
The FARMO provides support to general interest projects advocating research, education and the cultural democratization of these two museums.
Its projects are focused on the transmission and sharing of art and culture for all audiences.
The FARMO’s executive committee is comprised of eleven members, including seven founders – philanthropists convinced of the importance of art in our societies.
Art and Culture for All
The Fondation des Amis pour le Rayonnement des Musées d’Orsay et de l’Orangerie is:
- An essential form of support for international research in art history
- A central figure in the ‘Centre de Recherches et de Ressources-Daniel Marchesseau’ project carried out by the Orsay Museum
- A commitment to the democratization of culture with the funding of artistic practice workshops at the Orsay and Orangerie Museums assisting those facing great difficulties
- Actions promoting the education and awareness of art for young audiences that are distanced from it
Support the FARMO
Why support the FARMO?
In order to concretize our initiatives, the FARMO is seeking support.
Give meaning to your commitment by promoting research in the history of art and contributing to cultural democratization!
