➜ Short description
ARCUS Project’s artist-in-residence program provides opportunities for emerging artists (a 90 days (30 August — 27 November, 2024) artist-in-residency program in Moriya, Ibaraki, Japan.) in the field of contemporary art to cultivate their artistic creativity and vision.
Located around an hour from Tokyo, a residency at ARCUS Studio allows participants in the program to come into contact with the contemporary art scene in Japan as well as devote themselves to their creative endeavors in a calm environment while interacting with the local community.
