Caresse Crosby moved to Paris and quickly became involved in the city's vibrant artistic community. She connected with writers, painters, and sculptors who were pushing the boundaries of their respective fields.

Caresse used her wealth to provide financial support to struggling artists, enabling them to focus on their work. This support often came in the form of advances, stipends, and opportunities to publish their work.

Caresse and Harry Crosby hosted frequent salons and gatherings at their homes in Paris, creating a space for artists and writers to connect, exchange ideas, and collaborate. These events were crucial for fostering a sense of community among the 'Lost Generation'.

Even after Harry's death, Caresse continued to support the arts through the Black Sun Press and by providing patronage to individual artists. Her dedication to fostering creativity remained unwavering.
