General Information
The Artist Residency program was conceived of as a regenerative intercultural meeting place, where international artists can share experiences and sensibilities. The residency is aimed particularly at international artists who are enthusiastic about working within Toffia’s environment. The program offers artists the opportunity to confront new ideas or experiment with their work and the particular territory of Sabina region.
The residency is open to individual professional artists working in visual arts, photography, film & video, music/sound art, media arts, performing arts/puppetry/marionettes, and creative writing*. Each residency period concludes with an Open Studios day.
* Please note that we cannot provide facilities for printmaking, sculpture, ceramics or large-scale painting.
