Offered by the 4 Chemins Association (A4C), "Par Quatre Chemins" is a residency program dedicated to artistic research in Haiti. It is about offering innovative designers from all walks of life to spend precious time developing their creations in the country's interior cities.

With this program, A4C aims on the one hand to support artists from the earliest stages of their creative ideas, but above all to the effective decentralization of cultural activities confined to Port-au-Prince. The disciplines concerned include the performing arts, visual arts, transdisciplinary arts, etc... The end of the stay leads to a public presentation of the artist's work with his trainees.

The length of stay is one month. The winners will be awarded a flat-rate living allowance of the Gourdes equivalent of US $ 1,000. No age limit is required.

Eligibility criteria :

Apply as an individual;
Be a creator in a discipline of performing and / or visual arts, or transdisciplinary, etc ...;
Have an artistic project related to an interior city of Haiti
Justify several years (at least 3 years) of professional practice;

A short CV;
An artistic file (photo, audio, video CD, or documents by email);
The project and the CV must be written in French and / or Creole.

Funding, support and terms :
The winner will receive 80% of his living allowance upon departure from his residence. The balance will be paid to him upon return, upon receipt of the original supporting documents for the costs associated with the residence, as well as a report of the stay which must be submitted within two months of the return.

Any reduction in the length of stay will result in a deduction in proportion to the number of days actually worked on site. Payments will only be made once the administrative procedures have been settled with the Association Quatre Chemins.

The subsistence allowance awarded to the winner is fixed and final. All costs and expenses incurred outside of this allowance remain the responsibility of the winner.
Under no circumstances can the stay be split.
If, for personal or professional reasons, the winner could not maintain his stay during the current year, it could in no case be postponed to the following year.
