Ceramics Residency
Applications for 2027 are closed
Winners will be announced around 30 November 2026. See the call
The next open call will be in September 2027, for residencies in 2028.
Every year we invite ceramic artists to live and work in Salemi — a hilltop town in Western Sicily that we are helping revive through contemporary ceramics. Residents get studio space in our former-monastery studios, materials and firings, and time: to research, to experiment, and to make a body of work shaped by the town, its history and its landscape.
The residency is part of Our Project — residents become part of the studio's daily life, alongside our courses, teachers and the local community.
