NewImages is a nonprofit organization dedicated to immersive and digital creation in all its forms.
We foster the emergence, production, dissemination, and recognition of new storytelling through cultural, educational, and civic initiatives.
Each year, we organize NewImages Festival, a major international event for both professionals and the general public.
At the crossroads of artists, producers, cultural venues, and future audiences, the festival has become a global reference and one of the world’s leading markets for XR projects.
Created in 2023, the NewImages Hub extends this mission year-round: residencies, workshops, training sessions, and awareness programs.
A network of more than 18,000 professionals fuels this ecosystem, strengthening the presence of immersive arts in France and abroad.
Driven by a collective governance, the association is committed to supporting immersive arts, hybrid forms, and all new modes of storytelling that enrich today’s artistic and digital landscape.
