CUNE Comics-in-Residence Programme (CUNE CiR) gives comic artists and other professionals a chance to explore the culture, the people and the local comics scene of neighbouring countries. Through individual projects and collaboration with local comics actives, the artists can form new professional and personal ties and exchange essential know-how.
In 2023, the programme is accepting applications from comic artists and professionals living in Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Iceland.
There are two residency periods available in Helsinki. Two artists will be accommodated at a time on both periods. Please note that the atelier apartment needs to be shared between the selected artists of each residency period.
- Residency 1: 26 September – 22 October 2023.
- Residency 2: 25 October – 22 November 2023.
The residency benefits for the selected artist include a project allowance of 900€, accommodation, and return travel expenses.
