Space A is a significant hub in the field of contemporary art both locally and internationally. The goal of the KIAR is to create an intellectual space where the residents will get the chance to penetrate the local cultural and socio-political contexts, as well as to combine their artistic practices (research, production, etc.) with meetings, lectures, and other discursive events with local and international artists, cultural experts, critics, and curators. Kathmandu is surrounded by a valley full of historic sites, ancient temples, shrines, and fascinating villages. KIAR is an opportunity to travel back in time and to relive in history as well as experience natural beauty. we are going to organize a one-month-long residency (30 days) and two months long residency (60 days).

Now in its sixth year, The Neon Museum National Artist Residency is designed to expand the interpretive potential of the museum collection. The selected artist, working in the fields of digital, performance or visual arts, will have the opportunity to develop a project inspired by The Neon Museum collection. Engagement with the community is an important residency component through a workshop or specific engagement project.

The 2021 residency program will span six weeks from Monday, October 25 through Sunday, December 5, 2021, with the first two weeks conducted virtually and the final four weeks completed on location in Las Vegas. Artists over the age of 18 and based in the United States are eligible to apply.
