What it is

Two residency categories offered: Category A provides full funding and production support; Category B offers platform access and flexibility with self-funded costs.

Who it is for

Multidisciplinary artists including visual artists, performers, musicians, filmmakers, sound artists, architects, curators, designers, and creative professionals working across art, business and culture.
