PROGRAMME’S GOAL:
By providing artists’ residencies, the ART-IN-RES programme aims to support creative process and emergence of new projects. With the managers’ residencies, it offers space and time for intensive concentrated work on development, evaluation or long-term planning of cultural projects or organisations. The purpose of the ART-IN-RES programme is to promote cultural mobility and networking, experience-building, knowledge exchange and skills development of all those involved in the arts residencies.

The support of selected residents (artists/managers) is intended for reimbursement of personal costs associated with the residency (such as transportation, meals, daily expenses) and as a contribution to creative activity.
As part of the aforementioned support, host organisation shall provide residents with accommodation, facilities for creative activities, and ensure a successful course of the residency.
Additional services or support of other persons beyond the scope are subject to an individual agreement between the residents and the host organisation, possibly with a financial participation of the residents.
