Open Call: The Finnish Institute UK and Ireland / Acme London Residency 2025

Hosted by Acme as part of our ongoing international residency programmes, this year’s three-month Finnish Institute in the UK and Ireland/Acme artist residency is intended for a Finnish or Finland-based artist whose practice would benefit from time in London to explore and research new ideas, and who feels that they face additional barriers in pursuing their artistic practice.

In previous years, we welcomed artists Nayab Noor Ikram and Niko Hallikainen, who received an artist fee of €4,800 (€1,600 per month) and support from Acme and the Finnish Institute in the UK and Ireland’s teams to develop their creative and professional networks in London.
