The cultural association “Mecklenburg Inspires” invites artists during the off season to stay and work inspired by the region. The art work will then be exhibited or presented in front of an audience. In the planning of each residency season, the project manager plans with each invited artist a parallel activity, depending on the artists interests and skills.

Mecklenburg Inspires particularly welcomes theme- or site-specific proposals of the artists himself when applying for a residency.
The residencies take place during the off season, from the beginning of November until the end of march and for a duration of six to 8 weeks. Longer stays, if required, can be negotiated.
The association offers accommodation in local houses (3 – 5 stars), free meals (half-board and the possibility to prepare sandwiches for lunch) and work spaces.
Travel and material costs are not covered, but help for searching for mobility and other grants will be provided.
Conditions
* You are a professional artist or cultural operator (professionalism as the fact that the persons’ professional activity mainly concentrates on the artistic/cultural productive activity)
* Supported disciplines: visual arts, media arts, performing arts (dance, theatre, life art, performance), music, creative writing, art- and cultural management, cultural research, curation.
* Admitted are single artists and groups. Generally they give residencies of no more than 10 days to groups.
* In order to participate in any of the programs, basic knowledge of either the German or English are required.
