The Translators’ House can accommodate five translators at a time for a period varying from a fortnight to two months. Applications may be sent in by translators who have a contract with a publisher to translate a work of Dutch-language literature, including poetry, children’s literature, or quality non-fiction. They may apply for a monthly grant of € 1000 (€ 115 of which of which will be deducted to pay for gas, electricity and household goods); the accommodation is free.
Translators from Dutch without a contract are also eligible for admission, provided that they are working on a well-defined literary project (e.g. the selection of an anthology, the writing of an introduction, annotation or commentary accompanying a translation, etc.). All visitors will be required to write a report on their stay.
