Artist residencies & exchanges in Portugal

6 opportunities across 6 cities in Portugal. Apply directly to hosts on Artaway.

Portugal's residency scene is small but concentrated. Lisbon's emerging arts districts — Marvila and Poço do Bispo — host spaces like Carpintarias de São Lázaro (a cathedral-like industrial hall) alongside established residencies in Graça and Alfama. Porto hosts several repurposed textile and warehouse spaces (Maus Hábitos, Oficinas do Convento). Recent additions further north include Tondela's ARTErra and Covilhã's NEW HAND LAB — both in former wool factories. Working languages: PT primarily, with most hosts fluent in EN.
