Residencies & Studios
Since 2019, residencies and studio programmes have been a cornerstone of AHC’s mission to support artistic development and production. The programmes provide artists with time, space and a platform to dedicate themselves to research, experimentation, creating new works and building new collaborations and networks. In other words, we seek to offer the best possible professional frameworks for artistic growth, production and communication, aligning with each artist’s unique practice, needs and potential.
Below, you will find our current residency programmes, as well as information on studios and workshops.

Summerworks is Art Hub Copenhagen’s residency program in New York for professional visual artists who want to experiment with or develop their practice in graphics and printmaking. The program takes place every year in July and offers a four-week stay at The Elizabeth Foundation for the Arts (EFA)’s studio community with access to the Robert Blackburn Printmaking Workshop and accommodation in the Academic Guest House.
SCIART RESIDENCY
In collaboration with the Collaborative Research Centre ISOQUANT at Heidelberg University and the Niels Bohr Institute at the University of Copenhagen, Art Hub Copenhagen invites artists to apply for a six-month residency exchange programme that brings together artists and quantum physicists.
AURORA RESIDENCY
Dedicated Nordic artists, Aurora Residency is a three-month residency in Paris with accommodation, studio, and access to workshop facilities at Fondation Fiminco in Romainville. The purpose of the Aurora Residency is to promote Nordic artists’ careers and opportunities to gain visibility and expand international networks.
WINTANWORKS
Wintanworks is a residency-exchange program between AHC in Denmark and the artist/curator collective blaxTARLINES KUMASI in Ghana. This programme provides two artists – one from each country – with the opportunity to ‘swap’ locations for one month, each of them thereby spending time in another art scene and another cultural environment.
