In the organiser's words
Quoted from argo-arts.com and checked on 3 September 2026. This is the organiser's description, reproduced as captured. It has not been through the evidence checks that produced the figures above.
Argo residencies provide time and space to develop your practice in a social, supportive, and stimulating environment with a focus on process, not products. They are open to artists, writers, performers, musicians, scholars, and any other creative discipline. All of our residencies take place in Athens, Greece. Every resident has a dedicated workspace in Argo Studios, in the activist neighborhood of Exarcheia, above the weekly outdoor fruit and vegetable market.
Accommodation in both shared and private rooms is provided in the Argo "Mansions": a pair of neoclassical apartments overlooking a bustling city square, full of local tavernas and cafes. Self-directed residencies allow you to focus on a project or practice of your own choice, with plenty of support from the Argo team. We provide personalized recommendations; connections with local Athenian artists, curators, and craftspeople; and a warm, welcoming community.
We also offer themed residencies that provide a more structured, collaborative experience, with shared readings and lectures. Residents have the option to participate in group excursions and a public Open Studios. About the City: -Work and stay in the heart of Athens, Greece -A short walk to amazing museums - Dozens of contemporary art galleries, project spaces and performance venues -A strong tradition of political engagement and protest -Vibrant nightlife and queer scene -Ancient and contemporary art, theatre, politics, mythology, craft, and history
