children’s book writers and illustrators residency

For the third year, the Narva Art Residency, in cooperation with the Estonian Children’s Literature Centre, is announcing a competition for children’s literature residencies. The program offers one writer and one illustrator the opportunity to dedicate themselves to their work in the unique environment of Narva.

The aim of the residency program is to support children’s authors and illustrators. It offers creators the opportunity to work in Narva, discover the city from a new perspective, and focus on the manuscript or illustrations of a new book. During the residency, authors are encouraged to meet and/or engage with young people and children living in this border town, introducing them to the enchanting world of literature and illustration.
