Resident at Curry Hostel

The art residency is our way to encourage adults to focus on their passions, creativity and self-growth. The residency is free for folks with a visible create profile, please check the application process.

Basic idea

I recorded this video to explain the artist residency:

What is the Art Residency

Costs

Two weeks of accommodation (in our dorm rooms) and lunch is free for accepted residents. You can stay longer (at our usual costs) if you wish to. You can find our accomodation details here.

We have a decent sized library, workroom, broadband Internet, professional microphone (Blue Yeti), electronic drums (Roland TD 17 series), elecrtonic keyboard (Yamaha). We also have basic art supplies like different kinds of paper, canvas and colors. We have a fully equipped kitchen (including baking oven and dishwasher) where you can cook yourself.

Application process

Please message us on Instagram with the following:

  1. Links to your visible creative profile - anywhere online

Notes:

  • Any form of creativity and self-expression are accepted but we need to see that you put in regular work into it

We will go through your links and if we like your work then we will share our email address. Then write an email with the following:

  1. Provide us with a rough idea of the project you want to work on during your stay
  2. Please tell us why a space like Curry Hostel is on your mind
  3. Why do you want the financial support (up to two weeks of free stay and lunch)
  4. Please check your travel options and tell us when you would like to stay here

Notes:

  • Your project can be anything - including commercial work
  • We limit this program to two attendees per month

Other details

You will not have any responsibilities toward the hostel. You are free to work on anything you want, your own projects. We are not a party hostel. Drinking and smoking are allowed but like you would in your home (with family and friends) - please keep that in mind.

That’s it, we keep things simple.
