We are thrilled to launch the Southnord Residency Programme, a unique opportunity for visual artists and curators of African decent situated in the Nordics to spend time with their practices, while immersed in a contemporary African art context. This marks a significant milestone in our journey to make space for artistic exchange, expanding our horizons to nurture deep connections between the Afro-Nordic diaspora and the Continent.

Our long-term ambition is to develop relationships with multiple partners all across the continent and expand our offering from one residency spot to several, as and when funding permits. To this end, we will be hosting a series of webinars featuring some of the amazing independent art spaces operating in different countries. Our second webinar on 20 January 2025 featured:

32 Degrees East (Uganda)
nhereraHUB (Zimbabwe)
Savannah Centre for Contemporary (Ghana).
