AKEE RESIDENCY

Akee residence is a community project and is open to all artists, architects, educators, curators, and other representatives of creative activities who are given the opportunity to live and work in the countryside of Lithuania, implementing individual projects and getting involved in the place and the Lithuanian cultural scene.

LIVING AND WORKING CONDITIONS

All rooms suitable for residences are equipped with a bed, table, internet, electricity and a light source. The Akee residence also has common spaces available to both residents and other visitors: 40 sq. m. work space, bathroom, kitchen. For extra fee (10 EUR/day), our residents can also use 50 sq. m. dance facility.

Residents are given access to Akee’s existing wood, metal and other material processing equipment, video cameras, and video editing equipment.

Akee’s activities are supported by the construction equipment rental company MB Lairent (www.lairent.lt), so if you need specific wood, metal or other material processing, measuring or earth drilling and digging equipment, we invite you to familiarize yourself with the MB lairent catalog and the current need in advance inform the Akee team.

ACCOMODATION FEES

Short-term stays (up to 14 days): 18 EUR/day.
Long-term stays (15 days and more): 15 EUR/day.

Akee is also open for stays at no charge, with residents contributing to the maintenance of spaces.

Residency Program

Akee Residency Program welcomes cultural producers for stays between May and September. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis throughout the year, and interested individuals are encouraged to reach out to us directly to discuss their residency. Additionally, we occasionally announce open calls, through which selected artists receive fully funded residencies. However, these opportunities are project-based, irregular, and depend on funding availability.
