The ambition of PACA, through roadshows high level (in France and Europe), to make available contemporary art to the greatest number. Receiving no public assistance permanent PACA primarily finances its manifestations: the co-tenancy of its exhibitions and museums to host cities, sale catalogs and art books and prints it publishes, corporate sponsorship (especially in Angers and Laval), the occasional partnership with the department of Maine-et-Loire or with the City of Angers, the contributions of its members.
