Kinosaki International Arts Center | Artist-In-Residence Program 2022-2023

Kinosaki International Arts Center in Japan is now taking applications for the Artist-In-Residence Program 2022-2023, for residencies focused on the performing arts and supporting projects that critically examine the relationship between arts and society.

Applications are now open for the 2022-2023 Artist-In-Residence program at Kinosaki International Arts Center (KIAC), a creative residence facility centered on performing arts.

In April 2021, KIAC’s 8th year of operation, Reiko Shiga, a performing arts producer and care worker, was appointed as the new director, and Satoko Ichihara, a playwright, director, novelist and leader of the theater company Q, was appointed as the new artistic director.

The “Artist-in-Residence Program” has also established two new criteria, “Response to Society” and “Critical Creativity”, and will actively adopt and support artists and projects that critically examine the relationship between arts and the society in which we live. We are looking forward to receiving applications for projects that have the potential to present unprecedented value to society through collaboration with us.

The intended programme period is: 1st April 2022 – 31st March 2023 (excluding late August - late September 2022)

The application deadline is Sunday, 20th June 2021.
