First of all we want to welcome everyone who is visiting us. That is right, after a long period of working in this project finally it became true. The Residence for Artists in the South of Portugal is now open.

The residence is situated in a charming village called Tunes. Its about 30 km from Faro airport and 10 minutes to Guia shopping center. It is very well located because it is also very near to the train station of Tunes. You can catch a train from Tunes to any part of Portugal. For instances, you want to spend a day in Lisbon and you are there in 3 hours (maximum) by train. To the train station you take more or less 10 minutes walking.

BEHIND THIS PROJECT

This is a project of two cousins that gathered their dreams and know how to create this residence project:

Vitória, is Portuguese, owns these wonderful houses and has been welcoming people from the most varied places from around the World; Vitória is known among the visitants for her wonderful cookings and friendship;

Lina , is a Portuguese visual artist living in Finland and one of her dreams is to create a place, in Portugal, where people from all over the World, could meet and know other people, change experiences, register the moment, making of this place a “point of encounter” for the present and the future.

It can be done with individual projects and group projects.

The exhibition places in Portugal will be

agreed depending on the nature of the project.

Besides the interior working spaces, there are several possibilities of working outdoors too.

Five ground floor houses…each house has a: common working space, kitchen fully equiped, toilet with bathtub; There are 3 types of rooms and all are shared rooms: rooms for 2, rooms for 4 and rooms for 6.
