Manang Artist Residency

The Manang Artist Residency, located inside the Annapurna Sanctuary in the historic village of Ngawal, is one of the most unique artist residencies in the world. At an altitude of 3675 metres, it’s a place where ancient Himalayan traditions, sacred landscapes and modern trekking adventures converge. The residency encourages artists to immerse themselves in the traditional culture of the Manang region and respond to this remarkable location through their art practice. The residency aims to introduce participants to the local culture through periodic excursions and daily interaction with locals as well as a cultural briefing upon arrival.
