New studios/ateliers can arise at any time from new encouters.
We offer one two-month residency in July and August 2025 with overnight stay in a Yurt at the green domain of Albe.

For whom?
The residency is open to individual artists who may or may not have a psychiatric vulnerability themselves. We ask candidates to motivate why they consider a residency important in this context and what the link is to their own work. The selection of artistic proposals is done by the artistic team of KAOS and the residents/ staff from Albe vzw.
