Goga’s Writers Residence

Goga Publishing House has been organizing writers’ residencies for Slovene authors abroad and foreign authors in Slovenia since 2008. In that time we have established contact with excellent residence centres and organizations sending authors to such residencies across Europe including Passa Porta (Belgium), LCB (Berlin), Ty Newydd (Wales), Arts Institute (Czech Republic), Port Cetate (Romania), Estonia Writers‘ Union House (Estonia), PEN BIH (Bosnia and Herzegovina), and many others.

In 2014 we decided to upgrade our work in this area by acquiring a permanent apartment in Novo mesto which will be available for foreign and Slovene authors year round.

The apartment measures 95 square metres and is in the very centre of Novo mesto, adjacent the city hall and right above Goga Bookshop.
