We host a varied number of creative and performing artist /writer / poets etc, in residency during a year. We offer spaces for singular artists or groups.
Now and then we organise and co-host workshops, concerts, seminars and happenings.
The residency includes a combined living and working space,. We give support towards “green” travel expenses.
The food is mainly organic and/ or local, and is included in the stay if you are at the lighthouse
.We have a green as possible/eco-friendly friendly profile and ask people to travel “green” and stay as long as they can. Artists in residency who travel from abroad should stay a minimum of one month (including the green journey). The weather on Røst can be rough, so always plan your travel with some days buffer on arrival and departure.
Røst AiR works by invitation, but there are always a few spots available for open call and visiting artists.
Green travel (train, some boats, some cars, buses, etc) We make exceptions for artists who have low CO2 footprint or are disabled/have particular health challenges.
If you are interested in being considered for a residency, please send the following information by email, subject heading Røst AIR Artist Submission, and your name: Thank you!
