The residency takes place in the historic Trakai Vokė Manor Palace, located just 15 km from the center of Vilnius. It is a unique place where history, nature and creativity meet – inspiring to step away from everyday life and focus on deep, purposeful work.
Trakai Vokė Manor is not a museum, but a living space for exploration, dialogue, experimentation and co-creation.
Price – 30 Eur/night (includes: accommodation and working conditions; excludes: travel, meals, material costs)
⚠️ The program does not provide funding, but an official resident acceptance letter is provided, suitable for applications to individual scholarship or residency funding programs.
