The Slovene Arts & Culture Residencies Programme of the Ministry of Education, Science, Culture and Sport kicked off in 1998 with the renting of the first apartment in the New York City. The aim of the programme is to contribute to the Slovene artists' international mobility and visibility. Besides New York (remaining the most popular destination among the applicants) the ministry has established another three apartments in the following cities: Berlin (since 2004), London (since 2008), and Vienna (since 2012).

By now over 200 people have participated in the programme, which is reserved for the Slovene artists, writers, translators, curators, critics, producers etc. regardless of the discipline. Based on their proposals the residents are selected by the ministry's expert committee for the following year. Concrete research projects and partnerships with the local organisations or experts that can later on lead to the actual production of an art event or artwork are encouraged.

The residencies are limited to one or two months-stay whereas the rental, maintenance and travel costs are covered by the Ministry of Education, Science, Culture and Sport. The apartments are administered jointly by the ministry and the respective Slovene embassies with the exception of Vienna where the residency is included in the regular programme of the first (and so far the only) Slovenian Culture and Information Centre abroad.
