Visiting Artist Residency Submissions

Visiting Artist Residency Submissions

Annual deadline June 15

Visiting residencies are intended for printmakers from outside of Vancouver and provide a new environment and stimuli for them to expand their artistic practices. Visiting residents receive free access to the studio to complete a specific project. They are expected to informally share knowledge with other artists in our shared studio environment in any way they see fit. The length of the residency is negotiable. An exhibition might be an outcome of a residency, but it is not a requirement.

As our programs are typically planned two years in advance, and as we receive a high number of submissions, we cannot guarantee that those who submit will receive an update as to their submission status. Artists are encouraged to apply for additional funding from their local/provincial/national arts funding bodies, and we can provide letters of support.

Through our programming, we aim to feature artistic perspectives from individuals and groups that are diverse. We encourage submissions that represent diversity in age, ability, gender identity/expression, race, ethnicity, religion/belief, sex/orientation, and any other equality characteristic.
