The Ukrainian artists who will reside in the Estonian Creative Residencies Network in 2025–2026 have been selected.

Within the framework of the joint project, 9 residency spaces from LOORE network will host Ukrainian artists. The two-month residencies in diverse creative spaces around Estonia offer Ukrainian artists a nourishing work environment and networking opportunities. The scholarships cover accommodation, transportation and a stipend.  Similar to the previous joint residency offer for Ukrainian artists in 2023–2024, there was even higher competition for the available residency spots this time. The Open Call received over 230 applications for just 9 available spots, highlighting the strong demand and clear need for such opportunities. 

The project is funded by the Nordic Culture Point (1/24 Additional funding for artist residencies to support Ukrainian Artists, project ID34149)

Selected artists and their hosts are: Serhii Onyshchenko (Pärnu Loovlinnak), Anna Leonova (Arvo Pärt Center), Apl13 (EKL Muhu Kunstitalu), Olha Svyripa (Kordon), Tetiana Bakum (TYPA), Daryna Nikolenko (Massia), Oleksiy Koval (NART), Roksolana Zharkova (Eesti Kirjanduse Selts),, Martha Zhurynova & Bohdan Lokatyr (Copper Leg Art Residency).
