La Ruche

Though many of these small artist communities were swept away in the 1970’s renovation of Paris, La Ruche is one of the few that remains and still operates. It is a three story circular building that offers starving artists a place to sleep, eat, and do what they do best – focus on their art. Walking tours are the best ways to see La Ruche. There are also a handful of other similar communities around including La Bateau-Lavoir.
