Open call for winter writing residencies

Join our second winter writing residency season at Muijala!

Muijala’s artist-run residency and winter landscape offers the ideal surroundings for focus and inspiration.

The call is open for artists, writers and cultural professionals of all disciplines and backgrounds who need time & space to develop their text-based work.

We will host 3 to 4 writers at the same time. We will organise weekly peer-reading sessions during which we will read our texts, discuss what we are working on and give each other feedback and support.

 

duration: a residency stay between 3 weeks – 3 months during December 2025 – February 2026

DUMP Thoughts Open Call

DUMP Thoughts is a space where conversations around material waste, sustainability, working conditions, and the messy realities of making and living as artists come together.

For Edition One, we want to celebrate the open and collective spirit of DUMP. We’re aiming to document as many voices, perspectives, and experiences from across the industry as possible — whether that’s a critical reflection, experimental piece of writing, diary, complaint, or documentation of an annoying last-minute studio clear-out. We want to hear from you.

2026 Collective Creation Laboratory

Laboratories and Residencies Geowritings, Sensorial Wanderings, Landscapes Call for Applications for the January and February 2026 Program

 

These laboratories/residencies of collective experimentation invite creators from different disciplines (arts, writing, humanities, science) to practice and reflect on the processes of collective creation: expanded creation, the concept of authorship, listening, collaboration mechanisms, language, the challenges of collective decision-making, and the role of the individual within the collective. It also invites residents to share their interests, strategies, and experiences with these types of processes.

Flora Fiction Literary Magazine Fall 2024

For Fall 2024, Flora Fiction brings you into the night, into the silence where shadows move, and something stirs just out of sight. "Whispers in the Dark" is a call to those who feel the pull of the unknown, who listen closely when others turn away. The stories waiting in the dark are the ones we don’t speak of in daylight, the ones that linger in our minds long after the light fades.
