In the organiser's words
Quoted from aviariostudio.eu and checked on 31 August 2026. This is the organiser's description, reproduced as captured. It has not been through the evidence checks that produced the figures above.
An art residency provides the technical conditions, time, and space to develop ideas and try new approaches. It is a moment that promotes connection between artists from different backgrounds and consequently the exchange of knowledge and experiences. Aviário Studio Painting Residency aims to promote the exploration and production in the Painting field. Artists are invited to focus on their work in a creative and encouraging environment.
We offer the conditions to test possibilities and materialize ideas. On one hand, it can be a moment of transition, more connected to experimentation and research; on the other hand, it can be the point of consolidation of a project translated into the production of a new body of work. The use of solvents or other strong-smelling products isn’t allowed due to health and environmental reasons. Please always use green products (less toxic and odor-free) as a safer alternative to traditional ones, helping protect everyone who uses the studio.
Specific Equipments available: – Cutting Table 240 x 140 cm/94,49 x 55,12 in – Paper Guillotine 80 cm/31,5 in – Easels – Working tables -Light table
The duration of the residency can be 2 weeks up till 6 months.
You are free to decide if you want to stay at Aviário Studio’s accommodations or search for a place on your own. Aviário Studio has a guest house in the center of Ferreira do Zêzere and 2 km away from the studio (20min walk). If you decide to stay at Aviário Studio’s accommodations, you will be living in a shared house. The house is on the ground floor, and has one living room, an equipped kitchen, one bathroom, one toilet, three bedrooms, and outside space.
There is free wi-fi at the house. All residents are responsible for their own bed-making, and for maintaining a clean and quiet house environment. We advise you to rent a car, especially if you want to enjoy what the region has to offer, because public transports here are limited or non-existent.
