Independent Residency
A three-week stay at Dom Tvorchestva
The residency programme grants selected participants — writers, translators, artists, researchers, and musicians — a stay in Dom Tvorchestva over a three week period to work on a literary writing, translation, critical text, or other creative project. The programme runs several times a year and hosts up to eight residents at a time.
We invite applications from poets, fiction and non-fiction writers, playwrights and screenwriters, and translators. We are also open to any other discipline as long as literature is at the heart of the project — we accept applications from artists, musicians, museum curators, etc. It is also possible for groups of 2-3 people to apply for the residency to prepare a project.
Residents must be at least 18 years of age and of any citizenship.

The application for an individual residency must include a CV, links to published works or artistic portfolio, and a letter of recommendation (if applicable).
You can apply for each type of residency once a year. It means that you can apply for both an individual residency and a research residency within the same year, but you cannot apply for several independent residencies.
Alumni of previous residencies are also eligible to apply.
