Residencies

Kinitiras, member of Res Artis*, created the first residency centre for performing arts in Greece in December 2008. Until August 2019, it hosted numerous artists throughout the world from the fields of dance, theatre and performance. Inside its small premises located underneath Akropolis, Kinitiras became a creative hub while at the same time it opened the pathway for the idea of residency centre in Greece.
From 2019 and on we created another flexible model of residency that connects artists from Greece and the rest of the world without Kinitiras’ having a permanent base.
We are not accepting residency applications at the moment. Stay tuned in our website and our social media for future announcements…
