Artist Support

Time, space and support for artists
No matter what stage you're at we're here to help you explore your creative practice

Residencies

With a 30-year legacy of championing diversity in the arts, we have a proud history of supporting emerging talents and creativity through our Residency Programme. Each year we host a range of Residencies in our purpose-built studios. Over the years we have supported individual, or collective residencies, as well as recent graduates, career break, and international artists. Each with a focus on providing time, space and support to artists at a crucial point in their professional development.

Residencies benefit from professional mentoring, artist fees, material budgets and free accommodation, plus complementary studio space.
