We’re proud to announce a new collaboration between Sónar+D and Tabakalera. Next year, we’re collaborating with the Basque international cultural centre’s artistic residence programme.   

With the aim of supporting research, creation, and professionalisation in the field of Art, Science, Technology, and Society in the Basque artistic scene, Tabakalera has today launched the second edition of its residency programme, aimed at artists, creators and cultural agents. This year the programme will also be supported by Sónar+D and the Goethe-Institut Madrid.

The collaboration concludes in June 2025, when the Sónar+D interactive exhibition space Project Area will host a sample of the works developed during the Tabakalera artistic residency programme.
