We are frequently visited by art collectors: a number of large international museums have included our art center in their guides as a must see gallery for organized groups. We are highly rated for our space's unique atmosphere: you have the opportunity to breathe the fresh air of the Russian contryside while enjoying a definitely Europran approach to living and working environments. At our place the distant crow of a cockerel mingles with the chime of church bells while the smell of paint bears witness to the creative process taking place before your eyes. Here people feel at ease with each other and with the artists.

The residence is situated on the second floor of Gridchinhall's building. Its 120 square meters is divided into working and living areas. The studio has an exit directly onto the roof, with a picturesque view of Dmitrovskoe. Artists come to the Gridchinhall residence for inspiration, to immerse themselves in the local environment, for creative exploration, and to work fruitfully. At the same time, the art residence is an exchange of experiences, cross-cultural cooperation, new acquaintances, and new impressions. The residence has no formal constraints with respect to time: the minimum time spent by artists in Gridchinhall is a week, while the maximum is a year. Many residence periods culminate in exhibitions in the gallery on the first floor. The Gridchinhall art residence welcomes both Russian and foreign artists.
