Joining the Tallard Circle means supporting a singular place dedicated to contemporary ideas, where international thinkers and cultural figures live and work each year in the heart of Paris. Members of the Circle take part in an intellectual and human adventure grounded in hospitality, dialogue, and curiosity.

They enjoy privileged access to the Residency’s programming—including private salons, encounters with residents, and public events developed in partnership with leading institutions—and play an active role in the project’s development. Alongside the benefactors, the Residency’s ambassadors contribute to its visibility and embody its core values.

Among the project’s first ambassadors are Anand Giridharadas, Werner Herzog, Jim Jarmusch, Michael Pollan, Esther Perel, Felwine Sarr, Rokhaya Diallo, Delphine Horvilleur, and Tatiana Jama.
