📢 Important notification regarding changes to our residence programs and operations
Things are changing for PARADISE AIR in 2026.
Due to large-scale adjustments to our residence programs as a result of changes to our operating environment, we are suspending all residence program applications for June 2026 and beyond. For those artists who have already applied, or those who have been considering an application, we sincerely apologize for the suddenness of this announcement.
◉ Artists whose stays have already been confirmed for this year (those who have received confirmation of their stay from PARADISE AIR) will be welcomed under the same terms as set out at the time of their application.
◉ To those who have applied for our SHORTSTAY Program scheduled for June 2026 or thereafter, it is with deep regret that we must cancel all aspects of this residence program, including screening, results announcements, and program implementation.
◉ We will be announcing a new residence program at a later date, so those who are interested in a PARADISE AIR residence program from June 2026 onward should apply to that. Details concerning this new program will be announced in the coming months.
All of us in the PARADISE AIR management team have, in the thirteen years since the program’s founding, operated with the goal of becoming a “One Stay, One Art” point of transit. Working with the city of Matsudo, we have provided a place for artists, who in turn bring a new perspective to the city. This simple exchange has produced a powerful flow of creative people between Matsudo and the rest of the world.
Beginning in April of this year, PARADISE AIR’s operational approach will drastically change due to reductions in the budget for arts and culture hubs Matsudo has allotted to PARADISE AIR.
Fortunately, we will retain the residence space itself. Furthermore, PARADISE AIR’s management team is committed to finding ways to ensure that PARADISE AIR’s activities survive in some form going forward.
We draw tremendous confidence from our most valuable resource: the network of artists and Matsudo citizens that has developed over the past thirteen years. We kindly ask for your continued support. We also welcome any support or ideas on operational matters from those who may be able to provide assistance. With everyone’s help, we hope to overcome these dramatic changes.

📢 滞在プログラム及び運営体制変更のお知らせ
2026年、PARADISE AIRは変化の時を迎えます。
PARADISE AIRをとりまくエコシステムの変化にともない、滞在プログラムの大幅な内容変更を行なうため、2026年6月以降の滞在募集を停止します。すでにご応募頂いた、もしくは応募を検討して頂いたアーティストの皆様には急なお知らせとなりますことをお詫びいたします。
◉すでに本年のPARADISE AIR滞在が確定している方は、応募時の条件のまま滞在いただけます。
◉2026年6月以降のSHORTSTAY Programに応募している方は、大変申し訳ありませんが、滞在についての審査・結果通知・プログラム実施は全てキャンセルとさせていただきます。
◉2026年6月以降にPARADISE AIRでの滞在を希望している方は、今後新たな滞在プログラムを発表しますので、そちらにご応募下さい。新しいプログラムについては今後数カ月のうちにお知らせします。
私たちPARADISE AIR運営チームは、13年前の設立時に「一宿一芸のトランジットポイントになること」を目標に掲げました。松戸市と連携してアーティストに場所を提供し、アーティストは新しい視座をまちにもたらす。このシンプルな交換が、世界と松戸の間に創造性豊かな多くの人流を生み出しました。本年4月以降は、松戸市からPARADISE AIRへの芸術文化拠点予算が削減されることを受けて、PARADISE AIRの運営形態が大きく変わります。
幸いなのは、レジデンスのための空間自体は残せることです。そして、運営メンバーもPARADISE AIRという活動をなんとか残してサバイブすることに前向きだということです。13年間で築いてきた世界中のアーティスト達や松戸の方々のネットワークは、私たちの財産として大きな自信になっています。どうぞあたたかく見守ってください。また、もしお持ちであれば、サポートや運営のアイデアをお寄せ下さい。この大きな変容を皆様と一緒に乗りこなしていきたいと願っています。
