Can I apply for a residency in Krems without an exchange organization?
Yes. Until May 21 you can apply independently for the following year – if you meet the application requirements.

Is there an age limit for the grant program?
No.

Can I apply for a residency as a student?
No. Our program is aimed at artists who have completed their education. Autodidacts can apply, but must show an active artistic activity.

Can my children and partner live with me at the residency?
This is decided from case to case – please contact us directly. We want to give the opportunity of a residency especially to single parents. With very young children or special situations, there is also the possibility to bring the partner along.

What are possible dates for the residency? Can I start/end my stay whenever I want?
Residencies are all year round. Please indicate your preferred timeframe in the application form and we will try to take your wishes into consideration should you be selected by our jury for a grant. Residency duration is 1 to 3 months and starts at the beginning of a month. An 80 % attendance during your stay is compulsory.

I am a writer, but I don’t write in German. Can I apply for a residence?
Yes.

Is it possible to apply as an artist duo?
Yes. We will need just one application from both of you – please make it clear in the project description and portfolio, that you are applying as 2 people. For the application profile, address data of one person suffices.

The amount of the grant (1300 € / month) is fixed however – regardless of the number of artists. If selected, you would have to share one living and workspace.
