Res Artis--the worldwide network of residential art programs.

We are an association of over 400 centers, organisations, and individuals in over 50 countries. Each of our members is dedicated to offering artists, curators, and all manner of creative people the essential time and place away from the pressures and habits of every-day life, an experience framed within a unique geographic and cultural context.

Through Res Artis, organisations will become part of a global community of colleagues engaged in dialogue through our face-to-face meetings and virtually through our website.

Those interested in attending a residency can use the information and resources on our website, gaining insights into the profiles of our members and staying informed about their events and application deadlines.

Since 1993, through the volunteer efforts of of the Board of Directors and countless partners and friends, Res Artis has grown to become the largest network of its kind, promoting the role of residential art programs as a vital part of the contemporary arts world, stimulating the creative development and mobility of artists, and furthering intercultural understanding.

About Res Artis Membership

Res Artis has over 400 members - organisations, associations, institutions, museums, artist-run spaces and individuals - all of whom are involved in the field of artist residence and international exchange programs. These members pay dues to the network to help support the services and projects of the network itself. In return, our members receive the benefits of the support, services, and networking opportunities that Res Artis provides.

There are four different types of Res Artis Members : General Members, Associate Members, Individual Members and Emerging Members.

Conferences and Meetings

The heart of Res Artis is the face-to-face meetings. They provide opportunities for Res Artis members to meet, discuss, and learn first-hand about the host location. These are venues for sharing experiences, ideas, and meals, getting to know one another not only as colleagues but as people.

The larger General Meetings are held once every other year, each time in a new location. These meetings are organised in partnership with a Res Artis member, a local residency space, or other organisation. In addition Res Artis has a busy schedule of smaller, Regional Meetings, often focusing on a particular theme, issue, profile or geographic region.

The last General Meetings have taken place in Montreal, Amsterdam, Berlin, Sydney and Melbourne, Helsinki, Santa Monica, New Delhi, Cassis, Dublin, Budapest and Tata, Barcelona and Sabadell. Documentation from all of these meetings can be found on the Res Artis website.

==Res Artis Projects==- As a network, Res Artis has initiated several ongoing programs and projects. Organised by working groups, all Res Artis members have the ability to become involved in these initiatives, bringing to the projects their own unique resources, experience and energies.

Res Artis Awards : Through the Res Artis Awards, our network is able to directly support the mobility of artists by offering fully funded residency opportunities as awards. The venue of the Res Artis awards is a biennial or other art event hosted by a partner organisation. The awards are provided by our member organisations directly to the artist of their choosing. Res Artis Awards were first presented at the Dakart Biennial in 2006, offering 11 fully funded residencies to exhibiting African artists.

ResSupport is a training and support program for emerging artist-in-residence centres. It is a long-term project, offering a variety of options to provide Emerging Res Artis Members with assistance and advice during the challenging period of initializing a residency program. In addition to our introductory workshops, we offer resources that allow participants access to peer to peer support, 1 on 1 mentoring, case studies, and an array of online references. ResSupport is a program for Res Artis Members.

ResSupport Fellowship is an opportunity for an established Res Artis member organization to donate a residency period to an emerging organization within the Res Artis network. This experience not only provides the emerging organization with a glimpse into the inner workings of an established residency, but strengthens the bonds between residency centers and communities across the globe. Res Artis acts as a matchmaker, pairing applicants with appropriate host organizations.
