nordic watercolour museum short-term residency

The Nordic Watercolour Museum's 7-day residence offers artists in all art forms a free stay in one of our guest studios for a week and a travel grant of up to 1000 SEK. Every year, six to eight artists are offered the residency, to be used during spring or autumn.

One of the main goals of The Nordic Watercolour Museum is to promote artistic development to make the museum a space for thoughts and processes. One way of doing this, is by offering artists accommodation in the guest studios next to the museum. The museum wants to contribute to artistic networks, peace of mind, inspiration – for the creation of art. We are curious about the meetings and processes that can occur between the artist, the place, the visitors and the exhibitions.
