Odysseys Costa Rica

Intercultural ODYSSEYS Costa Rica is a civic, social and non-governmental organization (NGO) founded by Royce Clay Slape Seiger, himself a lifelong artist, in the belief that creating and sharing art across borders is a powerful tool for opening up human hearts and challenging the barriers that separate them. They have proudly hosted artists from as far abroad as Newfoundland, Canada, Australia, Sweden, Switzerland, France, Germany, Portugal, Argentina, Mexico, U.S.A. and England (including from the remote island of Guernsey, of the English Channel islands) - and growing. Though Spanish is the local language, English is spoken widely, and they've hosted artists who spoke neither. Those are the kinds of challenges the organizers love. So if you can imagine your project and have the professional skills to make it happen during your residency, they do everything possible to provide you with the uninterrupted time, space and inspiration you need.
