Digital Residencies in Jordan

Darat al Funun

Amman, Jordan

Darat al Funun's artists-in-residence program, initiated in 1995, creates a stimulating environment for artists from the Arab world and abroad to explore new fields, work, exhibit, and conduct workshops. Housed in historic 1920s buildings in Amman alongside archaeological sites, it supports creative encounters through collaborations like UNESCO-Aschberg and Pro Helvetia, and includes initiatives such as the relaunched Summer Academy for regional artists. Residents produce works for exhibitions and utilize spaces like The Lab for experimental projects.
