Dear art community and followers,
The FFR team hopes you all stay safe and well. We recommend you to minimize going out as much as possible, washing your hands regularly and not touching your face in order to prevent spreading COVID-19 as best as possible. We all hope that the situation will calm down soon.
We will continue to publish open calls, but we recommend that you always consider your decisions and applications regarding AiR programs with responsibility and care for yourself, others and our planet. We believe it is only by showing continued solidarity in these challenging times that we will be able to overcome them together and find solutions.
Love, FFR team!

You can Support FFR!
