Arts AlUla and the French Agency for AlUla Development (Afalula) launched on Wednesday the new season of the AlUla Artist Residency Program, a total of six programs – five residencies and one alumni program – taking place during the 2024 season.
Artists and designers from all over the world will participate in a rich and diverse range of residencies, spanning visual arts and performance, botanical and landscaping, heritage and innovation, and more.

During the AlUla Arts Festival, visitors will get the first opportunity to see some of the inspiring creations of the AlUla Artist Residency Programs as they preview within the festival itself. The residencies will be showcasing two exhibitions at the AlUla Arts Festival from February 9 to March 2.
The exhibitions will be for the Visual Art Residency and the Design Residency. This collective and artistic initiative continues to establish AlUla as a vibrant cultural program, encouraging visitors to enjoy the remarkable curations of these residency programs.
