Residency

1646 continuously offers a fully funded residency for (inter)national artists and curators throughout the year, to stay and work/research at our location in the centre of The Hague. 1646’s residency aims to support innovative practices, develop global networks, and engage the local art community in The Netherlands.
Residents are invited to stay at 1646’s guest apartment and work in the residency studio. The residency is not focused on an end result, but on providing a space for research, work and reflection, while getting familiar with the context of The Hague and The Netherlands. 1646 organises a podcast with the residency guest and a public event concludes the residency period.
In addition to our own residency program for which a participant is selected through an annual open call, 1646 partakes in international residency collaborations. 1646 has collaborated on the organisation of residency (exchange) programs with Structura Gallery (Sofia, BG), Budapest Galéria (Budapest, HU) and Cultura Resident (Valencia, ES), amongst others.

Applications for 2023 are closed.
