In 2025, one proposal will be selected to join the “Bom Dia” OASis Residency, at Cultivamos Cultura for a period of 7 to 30 days during the month of September

This call is open to international creators / artists / researchers from various fields and disciplines, as well as practitioners and experts that operate at the intersection of culture and other disciplines.
