BE (P)ART. GROW WITH ARTS | PEN CATALÀ’S LITERARY RESIDENCY

Olot

Deadline 31/05/2021

Apply

PEN Català, in collaboration with the Ramon Llull Institute and with the support of the European Union, is opening a call for young, emerging writers who wish to take part in a literary residency at Faberllull in Olot, Catalonia.

 

You may apply until May 31, 2021.

 

Residency is aimed at writers under the age of 35 in Catalan, Dutch, Galician,
Hungarian, and Serbo-Croatian. Writers must also have nationality or residency in one of the member countries of the European project Be(P)art: Belgium, Spain, Hungary, and Serbia.

 

They are looking for writing that casts a critical gaze on society, glimpses scenarios for our collective future, and reflects on and experiments with themes such as climate change, gender, technology, migration, democracy, and freedom of expression, among others.

 

The objective of the call is to offer a space for work, inspiration, and exchange. The residency will be organised in two formats. A collective format will prioritize exchange among the group of residents, where meetings will be held with different professionals in the sector who will serve as inspiration and offer mentorship. Another segment will allow each resident to develop his or her literary project individually.
