Res Artis, the largest network of art residencies in the world, and IASPIS, the Swedish Arts Grants Committee's International Programme for Visual and Applied Artists, with the support of Creative Victoria, are offering you a series of five webinars titled ”Residencies in Challenging Times”.

The webinars will focus on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the arts and culture and on how art organisations have been responding to it. We will also discuss how artist residencies can be better equipped for the future, as well as on how they are contributing to overcome some of the most prominent societal challenges at the moment, such as the fight against racism and inequalities, and climate change.
