Baltic-Nordic Residency Forum aims to bring together artists in residencies networks from Estonia, Finland and Sweden.
Residency networks LOORE, FAIRE and SWAN aim to build up a long-term network and involve other Baltic and Nordic residency networks in it.
The project aims to achieve a dual goal: to assist Estonian, Finnish, and Swedish networks of creative residencies in developing sustainable organizational work models and to establish a collaboration platform for organizers of artist-in-residence programs in these countries, promoting the sharing of best practices, facilitating exchanges, and stimulating collaborations within the Nordic-Baltic region.
