In the organiser's words
Quoted from resartis.org 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.
The Residency Program at Hangar encourages dialogue, exchange and experimentation. The program is non-prescriptive and process-based, allowing visiting artists to develop projects in response to their new environment, or to conduct research benefiting from Lisbon’s resources. The Residencies Program is firmly established in the Lisbon arts scene, promoting diverse cultures and practices through international and experimental projects.
Our aim is to nurture interdisciplinary and conceptual visual arts, with special focus on cross cultural connections, explorations of the postcolonial, diasporic experience, history and memory. Hangar develops several International Residency Programs that give non-resident artists in Portugal or Lisbon the opportunity to live and work in Graça, one of the most artistic and cultural neighborhood within Lisbon. Artists can aplly for a period of one month to three months.
Longer residencies can also be arranged upon request. The program aims to facilitate the international exchange and the exchange of ideas through artistic practice in the areas of visual arts, performance, photography and video. Through strategic partnerships in the international art world and institutions linked to cultural production and artistic research in various countries, mainly through the Triangle Network, the Hangar residency program aims to strengthen the existing exchange between Portugal, Europe, Africa and South America.
Artists can apply for a period of one to three months. Longer periods need to be discussed beforehand.
Hangar offers 7 living and work studios for residency in a private format. There are 4 studios with private bathroom and kitchenette facilities and 3 private studios that have a co-working format with shared kitchen and WC facilities.
HANGAR invites artists who practice the visual arts, with special focus on those who work in filmmaking, photography and performance. The special equipment HANGAR provides includes: D.Y.A. tools, studio space, a photo laboratory, a music studio, a painting room and a library. The residency program includes curatorial support (tutorials), studio visits, local art space visits and an Open Day (public presentation)
The private accommodation and studio are located within the same space. Artists also have access to shared co-working space.
Artists are expected to pay for their expenses. This includes studio space and accommodation, which are both in-situ. Costs start from €1,000.00/month to €1,400.00/month.
Artists are expected to partake in Artist Talks, Workshops and Open Studio events at Hangar. This is a valuable opportunity for artists to promote and raise awareness about their work, giving them the chance to create a dialogue of exchange between themselves and the diverse audiences that attend the events, thus working to raise their artist profile.
