Residentziak

THROUGH BILBAOESZENA – STAGE RESOURCES CENTRE, BILBAO CITY COUNCIL CULTURE AND EDUCATION DEPARTMENT ANNOUNCES THE CALL FOR THE FOURTH EDITION OF THE “ARTISTAS EN RESIDENCIA” (Artists in Residency) STAGE CREATION SUPPORT SCHEME.

The companies wishing to compete for a place in the 2012 edition have until 30 MARCH to submit their proposals and BilbaoEszena will select five projects which will receive financial support of up to €5,000 and artistic and technical assistance.

One of the residencies will be reserved for the best project to be undertaken in Euskera and the use of this language will be more heavily weighted (20% instead of 10% of the score).

“Artistas en Residencia” is a scheme sponsored by the Bilbao City Council Culture and Education Department, which seeks to foster research and innovation in the field of stage arts in the city by making financial resources, facilities, technical means and artistic accompaniment available to the artists or researchers to enable them to undertake their creative project.
