Describe the main features of the measure/initiative:
CerModern, which started a residency program under the roof of an art institution for the first time in Turkey in 2011, offers artists from different disciplines free of charge for 3 and 6 months. In 3 workshops of 70 square meters, defined as HUB Art Space, a workshop area where 6 artists can work simultaneously, all kinds of infrastructure, project, and exhibition support are provided. The HUB Art Space, which also has a 400 square meter exhibition area, provides space support to young artists. HUB Artist Residence Programme, a member of the international "Artist in Residence" (AIR) network and common platforms, also meets the official applications of international artists. The artist residency program, which has an important place in Cermodern's cultural identity, has hosted 33 local and foreign artists in the last 10 years.
• In addition to the project support, support is provided especially to young artists by providing space support to exhibit the works.
