About the A-i-R Program

As part of the Artist-in-Residence Program (A-i-R Program), the Friends of the Oberpfälzer Künstlerhaus e.V. send Bavarian artists, writers, and composers to partner institutions around the world for a period of several weeks. In return, the Künstlerhaus welcomes around 20 international artists, writers, and composers each year to live and work in the idyllic surroundings of Schwandorf-Fronberg.

The International Künstlerhaus was founded by the Friends of the Oberpfälzer Künstlerhaus e.V. with the support of many private and public sponsors and is run by the association, which also finances the ongoing exchange program. Since 1994, the International Künstlerhaus has been a member of the worldwide network of arts residencies, Res Artis.
