Located in Cassis, France, on the edge of the Mediterranean Sea, the Foundation offers time and space in a contemplative and supportive environment, giving residents the freedom to think, create, and connect.

About the Fellowship
The Camargo Fellowship not only provides time and space for the residents, but also initiates exchanges within the group and develops a collective spirit, which is one of the program’s distinctive features. The interactions developed among the program’s fellows are a vital element of this program.
Since 1971, the Camargo Foundation has awarded residencies to more than 1,500 individuals through its flagship program.
It illustrates its mission to support groundbreaking research, experimentation, and interdisciplinary approaches in the Arts and Humanities.

The laureates are awarded a 10 weeks residency in a stunning, contemplative environment where they have the space, time, and freedom to think, create, and connect. For this upcoming 2025 - 2026 edition, 14 applicants will be selected. With each cohort of fellows, the Camargo Foundation strives to foster connections between research and creation.

Eligibility
The Camargo Foundation is committed to supporting inclusiveness and a diversity of contemporary reflections and practices, welcoming applicants from around the globe. The Camargo Fellowship offers research-based residencies to applicants from various fields and disciplines. Three main categories are available, as well as several subcategories for artists applications.
Scholars: Scholars in the Arts and Humanities should have a focus on French and Francophone cultures, or cross-cultural studies that engage the cultures and influences of the Mediterranean region. To be eligible for a fellowship in the “Scholars” category, applicants are expected either to hold a PhD and a record of post-doctoral scholarship, or to be PhD candidates completing the final stages of research for, or writing of, their dissertation.
Thinkers: Thinkers include accomplished professionals and practitioners in cultural and creative fields (such as curators, journalists, critics, urban planners, independent scholars, etc.) who are professionally engaged in critical thought. We are interested in work attuned to the theoretical arena, the arts, and society. Thinkers must develop reflections contributing to equitable transitions, and producing plural subjectivities.
Artists: Artists should keep in mind that the Camargo Fellowship is a research-based residency. Applicants should have maintained a (professional) practice for at least the past 5 years. They should be the primary creators of new work or a new project. They should be able to demonstrate a track record of publications, public performances and exhibitions, credits, awards, and/or grants. We are interested in artists who have a fully developed, mature artistic voice. Applicants may include artists who are engaged in critical thought and researchoriented projects. When applying, artists will have to identify among the following subcategories: Visual Artists / Choreographers, Theater Directors, and Performance Artists / Writers and Playwrights / Film, Video, and Digital Artists / Composers and Sound Artists / Multidisciplinary Artists.
