Mediterranean Dance Center  Open call for residencies 2023 - scroll down and read before starting the application process
We invite dance artists with fresh ideas to apply for a residential stay in Mediterranean Dance Center San Vincenti situated in the heart of Istria region of Croatia. If you are artist(s) working within the field/s of contemporary dance, physical theatre, performance art and other cross-over artistic genres connected to dance, let us know about it. If you need time to explore, be inspired by the nature and tranquility of a small Istrian city, apply. In 2023, from April to November, we are planning artistic residencies. Duration of a single residential stay is normally 7-10 days. If you require a longer stay, this must be argued for in the application (in the last question there is a place where you can do that). Hit START to see the conditions once again and proceed.

    CONDITIONS OF THE CALL
    During the residency, the chosen artists will live and work in the Center.
    The studio measures 9 x 20 meters. There is a wooden floor (with the possibility of using a black or white dance floor), ordinary working lights (no special equipment), a wardrobe, a sanitary facility, and a kitchenette.
    MPC will host a maximum of 5 people on the upper floor, in an open-space sleeping area overlooking the studio itself (if there are more than 5 artists to join the residency please explain in the application).
    MPC will cover food costs during the stay.

    If offered a residency, we expect you to accept the conditions above, cover your travel expenses, and make an open presentation for the audience at the end of your stay.
    But if you feel you won`t be ready to test the work in front of an audience, you can choose to teach a workshop instead. Or you can do both, which is preferable. Other propositions like round tables or performing other work during the stay are also welcome.

    The donation for the application submission is recommended but not required. In the last step, you will be able to choose between several amounts. 

    The deadline for applications is 23:59 on February 20th, 2023.

    One of our goals is the include the local community in our work and raise audiences for performing arts in the Istria region. We try to introduce the artists we host to the community we work in. One of the activities is organizing workshops where people can meet, learn, share and have fun. Can you teach a workshop while staying in San Vincenti or present another activity that includes an audience? If yes, tell us more in the next question.
