About This Opportunity

The Swedish Arts Grants Committee's International Programme for Music offers a residency programme in Berlin for professional musical artists in electronic pop music with a focus on house and techno. This residency provides an opportunity for artistic immersion and contacts within electronic pop music. The residency includes studio space and accommodation in the Kreuzberg district. The accommodation is paid for by the Swedish Arts Grants Committee, while the workplace is planned and financed by the grant holder in collaboration with a local coordinator. The residency aims to promote artistic development as well as broaden the work and future income opportunities of artists-in-residence. The duration is typically 4-8 weeks based on the applicant's desired length of stay and availability. For a four-week stay, the grant holder receives SEK 50,000, which covers the residency grant, standardized travel costs, and accommodation expenses.
