Onassis AiR Open Call 2025/2026 (Due Mar. 7)

Onassis AiR Open Call 2025/2026
Deadline: March 7th, 2025

Onassis AiR announces its new Open Call for the 2025/26 season aiming to foster artistic research and process by providing space and time to arts professionals from diverse geographies and disciplines, enabling them to delve deeper into their practice without the pressure of presenting a final work.

After five successful years of operation, over 7,000 applications in the program's Open Calls and the support of more than 200 Fellows, Onassis AiR has become a hub for cross-disciplinary thinking and exchange among local and international art practitioners and researchers. The program cultivates the conditions for the exchange of ideas by foregrounding current issues and addressing the urgency of our times, rooted in the local context and attuned to the constantly evolving global landscape.

Onassis AiR invites artists, curators, artisans, performance artists, choreographers, dancers, fashion and costume designers, writers, dramaturgs, architects, set designers, filmmakers, sculptors, and other creative practitioners from any medium of expression or discipline, to apply for their selected program strand that will take place in Athens, Greece, between September 2025 to July 2026.

This year, the program turns towards new directions, further embracing crafts and material-based practices. Onassis AiR seeks to enrich its artistic community by welcoming creatives working in fashion, design, and applied arts, navigating the potential of cross-disciplinary collaboration and co-existence within an environment of ongoing exploration.

For the 2025/26 season, Onassis AiR enhances its function as an instigator of creative experimentation and welcomes a wider community of art practitioners by offering opportunities on four different strands, in collaboration with the Onassis ONX, Dramaturgy, Production, and Technical departments of Onassis Stegi.
