Located at La Friche La Belle de Mai in Marseille since 1992, the AMI is a general interest structure for artists (musicians and polymaths), cultural entrepreneurs and residents of the metropolitan and regional area.

Today the AMI is a driving force behind a strategy on a local, regional and European scale, developing an increase in competence across the entire value chain of support, from incubation to development, the missing link in the ecosystem of the sector and the music industry (ICC). 5 axes articulated in a 360° logic to carry this ambition: -Support for cultural entrepreneurship: the foundation and construction of the project community (Business incubator, co-working, consulting and training, networking and internationalization). – Rehearsal & professionalization & integration of artists: An accompaniment path, from service design, pre-production to networking (professionalization training, coaching and technical support). – Residencies & creation: Tools, a network of actors and artistic expertise for emergence and creation (commissions and co-productions, support for creation (staging, scenography, technical development), European and international cooperation). – Programming & highlights: To make visible the process of accompaniment and the defense of its artistic line by proposing the framework of innovative meetings with the public (co-productions, concerts and festivals JAMAIS D’EUX SANS TOI and HIP-HOP SOCIETY). Cultural practices & actions: To encourage artistic practice, the relationship with creation and its professions to generate the sourcing of tomorrow (workshops, mediation, EAC).

The AMI is therefore the place to welcome aspiring or confirmed artists thanks to the work spaces offered by its 6 creation studios (including an ERP of 100 m2 with an equipped stage) but also a place to support and welcome tomorrow’s cultural entrepreneurs via its Dynamo platform (resource center, training, consulting, coworking).
