Welcome, food, hospitality, words that kept coming back in the expressions of everyone, whether they were residents, volunteers of the Liberté neighborhood center, artists, cultural or social professionals.
Friday October 6, 2023, many of them met as part of a project initiated by the national Grand R scene, in La Roche-sur-Yon.
A three-year partnership with the Liberté neighborhood center and the Double company, which Florence Faivre, the director of the Grand R, welcomes.
From the long process, the meeting is born. The one that allows confidence, then the audacity to overcome barriers and dare to cross doors, including those of culture.

An adventure that began at the beginning of the year around cooking recipes.
“We all have a recipe that is our Proust madeleine,” smiles Valérie Barrientos, the director of the neighborhood center.
A culinary transmission project which quickly transformed into a real human adventure, where everyone revealed themselves as they recounted their cooking recipe.
Françoise spoke of “the margate of her grandmother Juliette who worked in a fish factory in Les Sables-d’Olonne and which meant so much to her”.

Khadidja was happy to introduce Rokhaya chicken, a festive menu in Morocco.
“I am proud to give something to the country that welcomes me. »
As for Laurent, it is the mogette of his childhood that he wanted to share.
At home, there were ten of us children. There was always a dish of mogettes ready. And then it was time to learn how to cook it. It was initiatory!

I would never have imagined everything that can be done just by the thread of a cooking recipe.

He went to meet the residents to take portraits of them which now adorn the walls of the neighborhood house.
Amine Adjina, actor and director of the Double company, wrote down the stories born from these meetings, while his colleague Emilie Prévosteau staged the rest in the form of a dramatized banquet.
Cooking is something we all have in common. By sharing recipes, we work on speaking up, we get to know each other, and then we invite other people to widen the circle.

A recipe book
Moreover, the banquet of July 8 will remain in the memory of the Liberté district.
“We had the impression of being all from the same family,” remembers Valérie Barrientos with emotion.
“People found themselves in a community, even though we started with individuals,” recalls David Fugère.
“Long-term links have been created outside of events,” says Emilie Prévosteau.
Links that continue to live on, as demonstrated by this evening dedicated to the opening of the exhibition and the book Liberté, portraits et recipes d’habitants.
This is on sale for five euros at the neighborhood center.
The opportunity to quickly discover savory and sweet recipes, from here and elsewhere.
Exhibition at the Liberté neighborhood house, 17, rue Laënnec, from October 4 to November 3.
