It's a bit of a paradox because financially, we've had less income from tickets, of course, but we've made up for it with patronage. I have been able to spend more time searching for that financing and the result for 2020 is that it has never been so good financially.2. There has been a fully public patronage agreement with the Van Cleef and Arpels Jewellery School, for which we will receive an amount of 40,000 euros per year for three years to research them. That for us is exceptional.3. (Being closed), we had to get close to the public. During the first confinement, I made a daily video about rocks and their properties. In front of my camera, with my little rocks… it was a little geology course.
