Join us at our hangouts where we will offer an overview of this years application, 1:1 support, and a friendly environment to co-work with other community members on your applications. Please bring a laptop or tablet to work on.

ABOUT RESIDENCY
CopenhAustin is an annual arts residency exchange program of one queer performance artist/organizer from Texas and one queer performance artist/organizer from Denmark. The purpose of this residency program is to support artistic development, facilitate cultural exchange, and encourage environmental sustainability practices in the larger arts community. A unique dimension of the call is a commitment to the intersection of LGBTQIA+ issues and environmental sustainability practices. Residents are given the time, space, freedom, and financial support to concentrate on developing their work. This residency program is funded and has a fixed duration of one month. In the inaugural year of the CopenhAustin, 2024, the selected residency artists made a total of eight public appearances, four in Denmark and four in Texas. Artists are expected to contribute to public programming, including but not limited to, performances, workshops, and panel discussions.

CopenhAustin is a collaborative program organized by Unlisted Projects, Warehouse9, and The Museum of Human Achievement

This program is supported in part by the City of Austin Economic Development Department.

Since 2014, Unlisted Projects has hosted international artists and leaders through an ongoing residency program based at the Museum of Human Achievement. UP facilitates transborder connections and international collaboration through friendship and the production of thoughtful new work. The community-driven nature of UP and its host location MoHA is firmly rooted in the idea of bringing people together to share their lived experience in a trusted and welcoming space. The empathy that stems from sharing stories and supporting new relationships are an essential step toward a healthy society. Lear more at https://moha.wiki/Unlisted_Projects
