Centrum EMERGING ARTIST RESIDENCIES

About the Open Call

The residency includes housing, studio space, a $1,500 stipend, studio visits with visiting artists and curators, resident gatherings, and an open studio event. Artists work within a semi-rustic campus environment surrounded by forests, beaches, and historic military buildings. Centrum encourages independent artistic practice while also fostering peer exchange and interdisciplinary dialogue. Residents may also connect with local partner organisations including printmaking, woodworking, publishing, and recording studios.

What is Offered
