The fellowship program Residence NRW⁺, which has been affiliated with the Kunsthalle Münster since 2020, is entering its third round. For the period 01.10.23 - 30.09.24, eight residency grants have again been awarded. The artists and curators will live and work for six and twelve months respectively in the new, permanent, location in the Hoppengarten.
