Siena Art Institute 2027 Residency in Italy

The Siena Art Institute (SART) invites artists and writers from around the world to apply for its 2027 Residency Program in Siena, Italy. The program offers three residency categories—Studio Residency, Studio/Casa Residency (including a private 1‑bedroom apartment), and Summer Residency (including a private 1‑bedroom apartment and up to $1,200 flight compensation). With a single $50 application fee, applicants may apply to one or more categories.

Selected residents are invited to contribute to the Institute’s cultural life through open studios, performances, screenings, and workshops.
