日本 | 2026年东南亚创作者驻留项目

The *** in Residence Kyoto 2026 Exchange Programme, organized by Asterisk in Residence Kyoto in partnership with the Artist‑in‑Residence Vietnam Network (AiRViNe), invites a single Southeast Asian practitioner to undertake a one‑month research and cultural‑exchange residency in Kyoto, Japan. The programme targets mediators, coordinators, facilitators, craft and cultural‑heritage practitioners, as well as everyday place‑based creators such as gardeners, chefs, or community organizers. Applicants must be aged 25‑45, possess basic English communication skills, and may be freelancers or affiliated with organisations. The residency window is flexible between September 2026 and March 2027. Selected participants receive full round‑trip international airfare, accommodation at a designated Kyoto site (e.g., Rakushi Housing Complex), pre‑ and post‑program coordination, and networking opportunities with local artisans, institutions, and community groups. Participants are expected to organise at least one public program during their stay and to engage in the host’s PR activities. Applications are submitted via email to AiRViNe with a CV, short bio, portfolio (max 10 pages), residency proposal, and reference links. The deadline is 16 August 2026 (23:59 GMT+7).
