Fondazzjoni Kreattività is inviting creatives from all fields to apply for an immersive and community-based artist-in-residence programme for 2020.
This programme aims to enrich cultural diversity within the national creative scene by encouraging encounters and exchanges between international and Maltese artists, the creative collaborators and communities as well as the physical and virtual environments. The residency framework will provide the time for research and development as well as opportunities to engage with communities in the presentation of work.
These residencies are based in the context of a growing cultural creative scene in Malta, in-line with Fondazzjoni Kreattività’s remit of being a catalyst of contemporary expression, a legacy of the Valletta 2018 European Capital of Culture in collaboration with the Valletta Design Cluster and Arts Council Malta’s Strategy 2020.
Duration varies from two to four weeks for residencies and projects taking place between February 2020 and December 2020.

- Spazju Kreattiv Artists’ Residency in Malta in collaboration with the Valletta Design Cluster
- Spazju Kreattiv Artists’ Residency in Gozo
- Spazju Kreattiv Children and Young People Artists’ Residency
