The E-ROUTES project team announces an open call for the E-ROUTES In-Residency Programme. The initiative offers contemporary authors, writers, artists, and creative individuals in general, an opportunity to spend one month in a chosen country (Croatia, Italy or Serbia) in the first half of 2024.
The E-ROUTES In-Residency Programme will engage European contemporary writers of travelogues as well as artists inspired by travel experience to research cultural heritage collections within different regions of Serbia, Croatia and Italy and to create original pieces of travel storytelling in various forms of creation. The residency programme offers a one-month stay in either Serbia (Belgrade), Croatia (Međimurje or Zagreb) or Italy (Napoli – Portici) between February and June 2024.
The residency will allow authors/artists to access existing digital collections prepared by the E-ROUTES partner institutions, to use them both as material for creative work and an inspiration, so that new artistic production will emerge from this travel and stay abroad. Authors and artists are encouraged to be creative in their applications, with the aim of creating novel and innovative travelogues, stories, images, paintings, photographs, video recordings and other material which will be used to enrich travel routes planned within the E-ROUTES project and create new stories for the travellers of today.
The programme will cover travel and housing expenses, as well as per diem costs during the residency, and is open to authors/artists permanently based in any European country.
