A sponsored Tafaria residency typically runs for about one month, while self-funded residencies can be arranged from one week onwards. The most useful length depends on the artist's project, working rhythm and how much time is needed for research, making and reflection.

Self-funded cost

Self-funded residencies have previously been guided at around USD 500 per week. Because rates and inclusions can change, artists should request the current quote for the exact dates and facilities they need.

Choosing the right duration

A short stay can work for concentrated research, writing or a clearly defined making process. A longer residency gives more room to respond to the environment, test ideas, collaborate and develop work without forcing the process.

Sponsored residencies follow the support and duration set for the individual call rather than a standard cash payment to the artist.
