We are an artist run cultural association, therefore the residency fee is intended to cover the cost of the program (accomodation, working space, exhibition space, curated event + total general operating expenses).
We are happy to write letters of recommendation and invitation for the resident to apply for grants in their home country, once the application is accepted and the booking fee has been paid.
