Tuesday November 12th 6 – 8pm on Zoom

Feeling like you need a creative reboot? This workshop focuses on applying and preparing yourself for artist residencies. Learn about the benefits of local, out of province and international residencies, as well as the differences between structured programs and independent research models. Gain some insight into finding and making residency opportunities. Learn to differentiate between different models. Find ways to fund residencies that charge a fee, and learn to find those that pay. We’ll discuss the pros and cons of several models and workshop ideas for non-traditional approaches. There will also be a brief discussion about a few logistical considerations when attending an artist residency abroad
