Väinö Tanner Foundation´s artist residence scholarships for 2025 are again open for all Estonian and in Estonia working artists and artisans and designers.
Väinö Tanner Foundation is an independent private Finnish Foundation which has supported Finnish and Estonian art and literature by providing residences for Finnish and Estonian artists, artisans, writers and poets for over 30 years.
In 2025 the available periods for Estonian and in Estonia working artists, artisans and designers are in the old studio residence (1. studio) July-December 2025 for 2 consecutive months (also possible to apply for 1 month residence period).
Unfortunately we can not provide residence periods in the Writers´ house any more for Estonians.
The scholarship includes a rent free visiting period and 200 € for travel costs.
Detailed information and pictures of the residences are available on our website (www.vainotannerinsaatio.fi).
