Description
The Shadowing Program 2026 is an intensive, hands-on international exchange in Bologna, Italy, supported by the CultureAndHealth Platform and implemented locally by Associazione Oltre…APS. The program brings together artistic research, collaborative production, and community-based participatory workshops to explore how art can support collective well-being, social inclusion, and cultural welfare in local neighbourhood contexts. It will take place from 20.09.2026 – 04.10.2026.
At the centre of the 2026 edition is the participatory art project “Threads of the Social Fabric”, developed through a cycle of workshops in Bologna’s Cirenaica district and culminating in the creation of a collective textile artwork. The final artwork will be permanently installed in an indoor public space connected to the city’s social policies or public health sphere, making the outcomes of the residency visible and lasting, both artistically and civically.

Description
RAMDAM, UN CENTRE D’ART is an activist space who supports artists in their artistic research.
The residencies are open to artists or teams engaged in creation, research or experimentation, without the need to produce a finished work. The venue is a tool to be invented and reinvented, or even relocated, as artistic experimentation unfolds: dance, theatre, performance, painting, sculpture, drawing, film, video, literary writing, screenwriting, digital art, hybrid forms… whatever the field in which the project is situated, RAMDAM, UN CENTRE D'ART is eager to discover it.
RAMDAM is committed to ensuring that the cultural world does not distance itself from social and emancipatory struggles. As a forum for discourse and public speech, RAMDAM takes a firm stance on the state of the cultural world.

Description
Ucross strives to provide a respectful, comfortable, and productive environment, freeing artists from the pressures and distractions of daily life. Each year, we provide residencies to 100 individuals. Residencies range from two weeks to six weeks in length. At any one time, there are up to ten individuals in residence, typically four writers, four visual artists, and two composers. Ucross provides each artist with living accommodations, meals, work space, and uninterrupted time so that the artists can focus on their creative process.
The residency program is open to visual artists, writers, composers, choreographers, interdisciplinary artists, performance artists, and collaborative teams. Applicants must exhibit professional standing in their field; both established and emerging artists are encouraged to apply.
