In the organiser's words

What the official page says.

Quoted from atlastudio.pt and checked on 1 September 2026. This is the organiser's description, reproduced as captured. It has not been through the evidence checks that produced the figures above.

Atlas is an artistic lab exploring the interactions inbetween nature and creativity, it is an independent studio running a studio residency. Atlas residency is an opportunity for international artists to experience the countryside within close reach to Lisbon. This new residency space emerges from the already established Euroatlas studio residency based in Lisbon, from a need to reconnect with ways of living and creating that are in touch with the environment.

The space is located in the village Carvalhal of the Bombarral Municipality, next to the vibrant and historical town of Caldas da Rainha. The Atlas residency is an independent artist space, with an independent focused program opened for emerging and established artists that are looking for a place of reflection away from their usual environment and that are self-sufficient in their research.

Duration

The residency stay for artists or groups is between one and three months.

Accommodation

The studio of the residency is composed of a warehouse of 200m2 with a working and living studio, own kitchen and bathroom, and a permaculture garden, designed to have fruits and medicinal plants all year round.

Disciplines & equipment

It is a non-prescriptive residency program with aim of facilitating the exchange of experiences and knowledge among artists besides their individual research and production projects. While in residence, the artists will benefit from production time enhanced by the exchange of ideas and experiences with peers. The residency provides accommodation and living space. The residency is open for application from groups working together or single artists and the program can be multidisciplinary in the areas of visual arts, dance, theater, writing and music.

Fees & support

The fee per month is 1800 eur per month (solo stay at the residency) and for collectives is 1300 eur (shared stay at the residency, more than one artist at the same time, sharing studio and house). Additional cost for partners is 600 €, and children under 12 years old a fee of 300€ extra per person. Atlas does not cover accommodation or travel expenses. The artist has to find their own sponsor in their country to cover the expenses. Additional costs might apply.

Expectations

For self-sustainable mature artists that are producing work based on process and research from all creative fields. In case the residency is occupied by two different artists at the same time the monthly fee per person would differ. It’s an opportunity to immerse on your work in the countryside, free from cities’ noise and chaos. There are opportunities to give a talk or organize a workshop with the students at the art academy ESAD, in Caldas da Rainha, optional.
