Deadline for proposals: 31st of March 2017

'Nomadic Village is an act of resistance, a call for collectivity, community and fun. It's very rare to find arts opportunities that provide the conditions to both produce provocative, critically engaged artworks and have a good time along the way. It is satirical and heartfelt, temporary and continuous. It weaves its way along the fringes of the fringes and gets under the fabric of society in the best possible way.' [Bean]

Since 2009 the Nomadic Village has been a 2 weeks annual settlement of artists on the road. In 2015 it will become a swarm of people on the move for 4 months, travelling across several European countries and stopping along the way to establish 3 different Villages. Artists on the road are invited to propose projects for the entire trip, or parts of it. They will determine their own travelling schedules and use GPS tracking devices to create spontaneous meetings on the road.
