Faberllull Olot
Faberllull Olot is a residency managed by the Institut Ramon Llull in collaboration with the Olot's town council located at the Hotel Fluvià, in Olot (la Garrotxa, Catalonia), from where you can see Serra del Corb and Puigsacalm.
Opened in 2016, it was the first residence of the Faberllull residences network. It organizes themed stays and individual stays, in a perfect natural environment where to concentrate and disconnect from the daily routine. We offer quality time.
Faberllull Olot organizes several thematic residences throughout the year where professionals from the Arts, Sciences or Humanities can come to spend a few days (between one and three weeks) working on their projects and sharing experiences with the rest of the residents. During the stay, the residents collaborate in activities directed to students, professionals or public in general; activities in accordance with a project that will take into account previous demands and needs.
We can not accept partners or any type of companion. Faber is a place to share experiences and points of view with other professionals around the world. We consider that this is important for the development of the residence.
We look for people who want to share their project with other residents and create a friendly and supportive community. Here we explain what we offer and who can apply.
