Hosting Categories

There are 2 types of categories to list under.

Creative Stays

Flexible, bookable spaces designed for independent creatives. These stays provide the time, privacy, and environment to focus — whether that’s writing, painting, composing, or simply thinking. These can be anything from creative's private homes with spare bedrooms (or renting out the whole place) to micro-residencies and art retreats.

Curated Programmes

Application-based experiences that bring together selected creatives. These programmes may include residencies or workshops, often with structure, guidance, or a shared cohort.
