The DIALOG CITY Art for Public Residency Programme invites professional artists to develop ideas for urban interventions dealing with local or global topics that are of great significance for urban society and that are based on a participatory approach.
By developing new practices for how to connect digital innovation directly to citizens’ physical participation, the European cooperation project DIALOG CITYaims to contribute to increasing access to culture through a dialogical approach. Co-creation is at the core, encompassing a Citizen Archive Platform for the cultural heritage sector and an innovative design thinking toolkit on Future Literacy. Annual Hybrid Festivals serve as physical and digital cultural platforms to reach diverse audiences.

This open call is for a residency in Turin and Mondoví running from 20 June – 24 July 2023. Selected artists receive accommodation, travel costs up to 1300 EUR, material costs up to 2000 EUR, and an artist fee of 3500 EUR.
