Announcement about the Residency Programme

Due to the high frequency of qualified applications to halka art project® Residency Programme, the deadline is extended to August 20th, 2011.

The selecting committee decided not to finish the process at the end of July but instead create opportunity to prepare the required material for those who are newly aware of the project and also to benefit from the priviledge of time for evaluating the applications in the best way possible.
