Residencies will begin at the start of the two month period and run until the end of the second month, so artists should look for flights as close to these dates as possible.

Program Description

*Residents are selected by a committee comprised of the Snehta team and an external Athens based curator who will work closely with the artists throughout their stay. The curator will be in touch with the artists prior to and during their visit to Athens, to discuss each artists practice and intentions. They will aim to knit a tight collaboration between the artists, themselves and the local scene and work towards an idea or concept which will result in an exhibition. The Snehta team will coordinate and monitor this collaboration throughout.
