TIDAL ArtS: Residency Call

TIDAL ArtS launches a new residency call offering €50,000 grants to artists or collectives for site-based residencies in four distinctive European aquatic regions: Venice, the Azores, Turku Archipelago, and the Danube. Selected artists will have time, space, and local support to develop ambitious works inspired by oceans, rivers, basins, and ecological relationships. The call encourages proposals that bridge art, environment, and community, exploring place, water, and human/nonhuman entanglements.

Deadline: November 15, 2025

Deadline: 15 November 2025
Submission Fee: Free

  • Implement the project in the Residency location and spend at least six week s on-site.

  • Emerging or established artists or collectives (all disciplines: visual, performance, sound, installation, hybrid)
