CAT Cologne

CAT Cologne stands for 'Community Art Team' and since 2010 has been awarding scholarships to young international artists who are socially engaged in their work by addressing current issues and site-specific topics in search of possible solutions.

As an artist residency, CAT offers the opportunity to live in Cologne for 1-3 months and realize an artistic project. An accompanying program, a final presentation and a catalog document the project. CAT supports projects that involve the local community and actively seek dialogue with diverse communities of all ages in Cologne. In this way, CAT aims to break down barriers and open up access to art and art production to a broad public
