The Saari Residence in Mynämäki, Southwest Finland, is calling for applications from professional artists and groups for their 2025 Residency Programme. Special support is provided for those from the Global South.  

The two-month individual residency periods are:

  • November to December 2025

Group residencies for 2 to 4 weeks take place during the months of June, July and August 2025.

Who can apply?

The residencies are intended for individual professional artists, fiction writers, poets, novelists, translators, curators and critics, and artistic collectives (minimum group size is 3 people) of all disciplines and all nationalities. They welcome artists at all stages of their professional life. Priority is given to multidisciplinary, new, or non-mainstream themes and fields of art. Artists with families and partners are also welcome to apply. 

What is provided?

The individual residency includes an apartment, a workspace and a monthly grant according to the artist’s experience (from 2,700 EUR/month to 3,800 EUR/month). 

Residents can apply for support for ecological travel. If the journey takes more than a week in total, it is possible to also apply for a work grant for the travel.
