There are no more artist-in-residence places available for 2026.
Applications for 2027 can now be submitted for the period from February to the end of December 2027.
The «Lyseloth» scholarship comprises free accommodation in one of the guest apartments, including free usage of the infrastructure of the “Musikwohnhaus”.
All apartments are sound proof and are intended for rehearsing.
There are additional common rooms at the guests' disposal for rehearsing and recording projects.
To get around in the city a bicycle is at the guest’s disposition and the Baselcard allows free usage of the public transport system within the city perimeter.
The scholarship will be granted for a period between two and eight weeks. Along with the accommodation, the beneficiary is awarded a weekly allowance of CHF 200 to cover the basic living cost. The scholarship is open to artists in all fields.
There are no specific requirements regarding the working process during a stay. The guest apartment and its facilities are particularly well suited to allowing guests to focus on their work and immerse themselves in their creative process, away from their usual daily routine.
If any of the residents staying for one month or longer wish to provide an insight into their creative process – for example, through a concert or a presentation – this can be discussed together.
Fabienne Robin (management guest apartments), Remo Schnyder (musician), Fabian Gisler (musician) and Miro Galtagirone (musician) are responsible for selecting the scholarship holders.
