  programme

The Slovene Arts & Culture Residency in London is located in the Shoreditch area in the Borough of Hackney within Inner London, 8 km north-east of Charing Cross. It was established in 2008 following the successful model of the New York and Berlin studios.

The residencies are offered to Slovene artists, writers, translators, curators, critics, producers, etc., regardless of discipline, through annual public call by the Ministry of Culture. The residency is co-managed by the [[Embassy of the Republic of Slovenia London ]].

Eligibility

Following the open call, the residents are selected by the ministry's expert committee for the following year, considering the submitted proposals that should outline an art/research project developed in partnerships with local organisations, and international artists and experts.

The Ministry of Culture covers the rental, maintenance and travel costs.
