Nectar Family Residency

Nectar presents its second edition of the Art Residency Program, which welcomes and supports artists with families at their farm house in the Pyrenees in Spain.

The Artist Family Residency makes it possible for artists to dedicate time to their work at this key stage in their lives by offering all of the support necessary to do and by assisting them to have productive and rewarding careers as they rear their families.

To support both the creative and parental needs of its residents, the program offers living and studio space, as well as accommodation, meals and creative workshops for the children (and adults for who want to join as well).
