Residencies and Awards


The Sylt Foundation offers residencies to artists from all disciplines and is committed to the individual support of every resident. Writers, artists, dramatists, film makers and composers from all over the world are invited to spend quality time either on the island of Sylt, in Johannesburg or at other places, where we work together with our partners.
 Residencies are one or two months long and every resident should either work on his own project/reflection or on a project of the Sylt Foundation. We are a small team so please be aware that direct applications will not be accepted and won't be answered.
