Greece Residency – rolling deadline
The Lakkos Artist Residency is a base for creatives to explore an authentic Greece city and a wonderful Greek island. The residency has just relocated to a new location that like the previous one needs a bit of an art injection. It’s a small area in Heraklion’s Old Town that time has not touched.
There are a couple of city beaches within walking distance. There is no obligation to put on a presentation at the end of an artist’s stay but if desired we often have one-night-only shows.
Duration of residency: Minimum two weeks
Open to artists internationally
All creative people are welcome to apply for a stay at the residency. The residency can accommodate a maximum of 2 artists (partners possible on request) at one time. The amount of time stayed is flexible but should be no shorter than two weeks. In winter two small dogs and a cat sometimes stay in the downstairs apartment. If you have an allergy please mention it in your application.
If you wish to apply for a stay at the Lakkos Artists Residency please email mathewhalpin@hotmail.com. In your email please explain;
