The city of Valladolid (Spain) opens a new call addressed to artists from ‘CreArt. Network of Cities for Artistic Creation’, and will select three artists from other cities who wish to work on their artistic projects for five weeks in Galerías VA in Valladolid, between 18 May to 21 June 2026.
Artists-in-residence will have a mentor to help them to establish in the city, for their presentation to the artistic community in the city and support in the development and presentation of the project. During the residency, an Open Studio will be organised for the local press, besides an ephemeral exhibition (around 5 days-long) in Galerías VA for the general public with the final works (selected by the mentor and the organisation). A documentary video of the residency and the presentation of the projects will be edited the week before the exhibition.
Artist Residencies are offered for three visual artists from different disciplines who are: born or currently living in any of the cities that participate in ‘CreArt. Network of Cities for Artistic Creation’: Kaunas (Lithuania), Liepaja (Lithuania), Skopje (Northern Macedonia), Aveiro (Portugal), Lublin (Poland), Venice (Italy), Rouen and Clermont-Ferrand (France), Ceske Budejovice (Czech Republic), Oulu (Finland), Regensburg (Germany); Members of Croatian Asociation of Visual Artists (HDLU); Ukrainian artists thanks to cooperation with the Lviv Art Council ‘Dialog’.

- Artist fee of 1,500 EUR (NET amount) in two payments.
