Each year, Swiss Institute hosts two residents from Switzerland in a program funded by ProHelvetia. Aimed at promoting artistic exchange between Switzerland and New York, the residency embodies a core element of Swiss Institute’s mission.

Artists based in Switzerland are welcome to apply. In the spring, applicants may submit their responses and materials through a portal to be made available on this page. 

For more information, please contact KJ Abudu at kj@swissinstitute.net or visit Pro Helvetia’s website.
