Arroscia

About

The Arroscia Residency is an artist-run, nonprofit residency program located in the serene Arroscia Valley of Liguria, Italy. Designed for emerging and mid-career artists, it offers 3–8 week residencies twice per year, supporting studio-based practices across a wide range of visual disciplines. Artists receive fully funded support including round-trip airfare, shared housing, studio space, exhibition opportunities, and a weekly stipend for materials and living expenses. The residency is deeply rooted in community engagement, encouraging artist talks, mentoring, or public installations as part of the experience. Studio space is located in a renovated medieval palazzo in the historic town of Pieve di Teco, while housing is provided nearby. Each residency concludes with a gallery exhibition, and one selected piece remains in the residency’s permanent collection. Artists from around the world are welcome to apply via an open call hosted on the Café platform. With its blend of cultural immersion, professional support, and stunning natural surroundings, Arroscia offers artists a chance to focus, reflect, and grow in a quiet yet vibrant artistic environment.
