On top of the Studio Program Fellowships this year CASTRO offers permanent opportunities.
Permanent opportunities:
These Fellowships are not subject to specific timings and therefore have no deadline. However they are subject to availability. The selection for this opportunity will be conducted exclusively by the CASTRO Team.
2.5 THE CASTRO FELLOWSHIP
This fellowship is an opportunity for artists based in Rome who need a studio to work in.
This fellowship does NOT involve the activities of the CASTRO Studio Program and is only meant as an offer of a work space. This fellowship provides a studio at CASTRO. A fixed monthly fee of €250 is required for the studio, equivalent to 50% of the cost of the studio. The fee will be fully reinvested in the CASTRO Program. The aim of this fellowship is to foster the local community, encouraging the artist to work in the studio and to be in daily dialogue with other artists and with the CASTRO Program at large.
The selection for this opportunity will be conducted exclusively by the CASTRO Team. A minimum stay of 2 months is required. (Starting from September 2022). This fellowship is NOT subject to the deadline of the open call, therefore applications may be received at any time during the year.
