Green Olive Arts — Moroccan Art Residency — Spring 2027 Open Call
Overview
Green Olive Arts, an independent residency program based in Morocco, has announced an open call for its Spring 2027 session. The residency provides visual artists with the opportunity to live and work in a distinct cultural and geographic context, removed from the familiar rhythms of their home studios. While specific details regarding duration, facilities, and financial terms are not outlined in the public announcement, the program is positioned as a period of concentrated production and cross-cultural exchange. The residency is open to artists at various career stages, with no stated restrictions on medium or nationality. Green Olive Arts has previously hosted practitioners working across painting, sculpture, photography, and mixed media, and the Spring 2027 call maintains this broad disciplinary scope. The selection process is competitive, and the jury—composed of arts professionals—will evaluate applications based on the strength of the proposed project, the quality of past work, and the applicant's ability to engage with the residency's context. Artists selected for the residency will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in Morocco's rich artistic and cultural landscape, though the exact nature of the facilities and support remains unspecified. The program's emphasis on cross-cultural engagement suggests that successful applicants will be those who can articulate how a sustained period in Morocco will inform their practice and contribute to a meaningful body of work.
