Open call!

Apply to the Juice Mentorship Program!

We are now opening applications for this year’s Mentorship Program. The program is for those who want to create and showcase their work during 2026!

In this annual program, young creatives receive mentorship and resources to develop their artistic practice and create work around a specially selected theme.

We support you throughout your creative process and organize public events around your work. We cover both production and event costs.

Here you can see the results from last year’s program (link).

This year, we are looking to admit artistic collectives or a group of creative friends (no individual applicants). You must be a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 4 people.

Artistic Theme for 2026: SELF

The Self.

A phenomenon we are all conscious of on some level.

As a creative, you are called to explore what self means through your creative practice. This is an opportunity to turn the lens back on yourself — to be brave, to be vulnerable, and to investigate the Self. How you relate to it is unique to you.

There is no right or wrong outcome.
Only your outcome.

The theme must be illustrated and communicated in visual form.
We encourage you to look within and reflect on:

• What is SELF to you?

• What aspects of SELF would you like to explore?

• What form does SELF take?

• What color or colors represent SELF and what does it smell like?

We will select ideas that dare to move beyond one-dimensional interpretations of “SELF” and instead explore something nuanced.

How to apply:

• Describe your collective/group: Who are you? What are your creative practices? Why do you want to join our program?

• Attach work samples, images, links, etc. of previously created works.

• Describe your interpretation of the theme and your idea for what you want to create based on it.

• Feel free to illustrate your concept with a mood board.

Email your application to: hello@juicestudios.se
Subject line: “SELF”
Deadline: March 10

The project is carried out with support from the City of Stockholm Cultural Administration (Kulturförvaltningen).
