The International Residency programmes are part of the National Arts Council's ongoing efforts to develop the capability of Singapore arts practitioners through their participation in relevant established international residency platforms as well as to open up opportunities to nurture Singapore talents, address skills gaps in the current arts industry and facilitate subsequent knowledge transfer to benefit the Singapore arts community. The platforms also enable networking opportunities with international counterparts and provide our talents first-hand insights to the international arts world.
