Job description
Company :
Within a historic residence, rehabilitated in 2017, Le Doyenné, a space for modern and
contemporary art, hosts an internationally renowned artist each year (Marc Chagall,
Joan Miro, Nicolas de Staël, Pablo Picasso, Ernest Pignon-Ernest, Hans Hartung, and in 2025
Jean Dubuffet) with an average of 30,000 visitors per exhibition. The summer exhibition is
a moment awaited by visitors as much as the mediation activities.
In 2026, the Matisse exhibition attracted 44,809 visitors and over 3,000 schoolchildren.
Le Doyenné is located in Brioude, which is 45 minutes from Clermont-Ferrand and Le Puy-en-
Velay, in a town of 6,600 inhabitants where culture and know-how are omnipresent: the
stained glass windows of Father Kim in Joong at the Saint-Julien basilica, temporary exhibitions at the lace hotel and at the Mandrin house, as well as local history at the salmon and river house. A cultural program is also offered at the Le Paris cinema and at the La Halle aux Grains performance hall.
Passionate about modern art, you wish to evolve in an environment that blends historical heritage
and modern creation with a local focus that demonstrates the attractiveness of a cultural
site in a rural area and serves as an economic driver for the territory.
Based in Brioude, you will support the director-curator, his assistant, and his team in
mediation missions for all audiences, and in the implementation of events and cultural actions
(Museum Night, European Heritage Days, Science Festival, ...)
Job description :
Your key responsibilities?
· You will participate in mediation activities for all audiences, particularly local schools.
· You will be responsible for several guided tours and will provide on-site mediation within

· You will participate in the planning, organization, and promotion of events or
other cultural actions.Please note, for this internship, working days are set from Monday to Sunday with two days
off. Your presence will also be required punctually during openings or events which may be held in the evening or on weekends.
