CCF will award ten grants of USD 5,000 to support short-term, intra-Caribbean residencies and fellowships.
The CCF invites cultural institutions and organisations with residential capacity to submit proposals for artist residencies and fellowships. The CCF grant must cover all costs, including visa, travel, accommodation, meals, and interpretation for up to a maximum of two artists from any Caribbean country or territory other than the one of the applicant. The residencies should foster creative exchange, collaboration, and innovation across diverse artistic disciplines and cultural contexts.
Through this call, the CCF seeks to create meaningful opportunities for artistic growth, facilitate connections between artists, institutions, and communities, and strengthen the cultural and social ecosystem of the Caribbean region. Priority will be given to organisations that have hosted residencies in the past three years and that have preselected the artist(s) when applying.
The residencies and fellowships may be open to practitioners from any artistic discipline. Selected artists must be willing to participate in at least one public activity during the period and at least one virtual event to be hosted by the CCF.
Applications are welcome in all art genres. All residences and fellowships must take place between June and September 2026
This call is open to applicants from all countries and territories in the Caribbean. The CCF defines the Caribbean as all countries and territories located within the Caribbean Sea. Central and Latin American continental countries and territories with Caribbean coastlines and strong Caribbean historical connections are also eligible.
