----

The Vienna Hub AEiR is a creative arts business residency developed by artists and business people for artists / people  of every conceivable discipline. It is stimulating and contemplative environment for international artists/creatives/entreprenurs and a meeting point for divergent and creative thinking. ( designed to be incoming agency for Erasmus creatives and Erasmus Entrepreneurs )

This is a multi-disciplinary residency, self determined, critical and profoundly engaging, in Vienna,  the most livable city in the world. It offers abundant time and space for residents to make, think, explore and learn from their surroundings.

The Vienna Hub AEiR supports a range of disciplines including, but not limited to, visual art, writing, music, dance, curatorial and film. Founded by Vienna Hub in 2022 ( we hope )  this AEiR programme is grounded in the foundation that dynamic and sustainable creative activity is the backbone to regenerating humanity and community that has been slowly abandoned over the last fifty years. (!)

Intention - by 2032,  this AiR intends to have welcomed (( over 1440 = 10 x 144 , 10 years of 12 months x 12 people )) artists and creatives to realise their projects within one of the most unique and beautiful cities of the world.
