The deadline for the upcoming TROJICA AIR residencies as well as for the short-term residencies in the cultural center Eleuzína is 11 April 2021.
The residential programs organized by LIC and its partners are running with small changes because the pandemic situation introduces certain limitations in travel, aspecially in the case of translators coming from foreign countries. On our website, you can find the transcript of the video recorded by Miłosz Waligórski, our first TROJICA AIR resident this year or the author's diary of Eva Kenderessy who has been translating the novel Glass Garden by the Moldavian author Tatiana Tibuleac at her short-term residency in KC Eleuzína in Banská Štiavnica.
