Fellowship – Künstlerhaus Schloss Wiepersdorf
Every year, the ARSB enables one visual artist with a Rhineland-Palatinate connection* to spend three months in Schloss Wiepersdorf, Brandenburg. The person lives and works there as part of a residency program with scholarship holders from the fields of literature, visual arts, music and research.
