La Caserma Creative Residency

Service Description

Fourteen days to stop postponing your creative life. The two-week La Caserma Creative Residency is our most immersive programme for writers, visual artists, photographers and multidisciplinary creatives who need serious time, space and inspiration to develop meaningful work. For fourteen days, La Caserma becomes both your home and your creative base. You will have the freedom to follow your own artistic process while receiving individual support, local inspiration and opportunities to engage with the landscapes, traditions and people of Irpinia. This is not a packed holiday itinerary. It is protected creative time. The structure is light, the support is personal, and the focus is on helping you move your project forward. You may arrive with a manuscript, a collection, a visual concept or the beginning of an idea. You will leave with substantial new work and a deeper connection to your own creative practice.
