Opportunity Description

International Deadline: August 31, 2022 – The Stiftung Künstlerdorf Schöppingen awards around 40 fellowships each year in the fields of visual art, literature and composition. Since the foundation of the Künstlerdorf in 1989, a total of about 800 artists have been invited. The fellowships are linked to a residency in the Künstlerdorf of two to six months each. The program is open for international applications and without age restriction.

The Künstlerdorf is located in the remote area near the Dutch border. Its guiding principle is that of a social space that promotes cross-disciplinary artistic and personal exchange and development. Space for a wide variety of activities and engagement is provided by the community kitchen, garden, workshop, library, gallery, exhibition hall, and the surrounding area.

The Künstlerdorf Schöppingen puts value on collegial advice and the exchange of knowledge by providing a supportive and non-competitive setting. It encourages contributions to the temporary community of fellows and the local and regional environment. Contributions are voluntary and non-binding.

ELIGIBILITY
Applications are open to professional artists, authors and composers. The call is open to people of all nationalities and ages. Accommodation for partners and family can be provided.

GRANT
All grants amount to 1,500 euros per month, minus approximately ten percent for operating costs. The period of grant, with a duration between two and six months, can be chosen according to agreement and availability. Residency in the Künstlerdorf is compulsory for the duration of grant. The fellowship is not designed as a production residency and there is no obligation to present work results. However, there is the possibility to use exhibition opportunities. In addition, we welcome voluntary participation in the organization of events, in the form of lectures, readings, workshops or similar.
