These residencies provide artists with space, resources, and creative freedom to develop new work in inspiring environments. Through Erasmus+, SayPro promotes artistic exchange, innovation, and professional growth, empowering South African creatives to expand their horizons and engage with global art communities. These experiences help artists build international networks and increase their visibility, aligning with SayPro’s mission to foster cultural development and empowerment.
Erasmus+ initiatives facilitated by SayPro include workshops, exhibitions, and collaborations that enrich artistic practices.
