Applications are now open for the Library’s Creative in Residence 2024
The Library’s Special Collections is home to our region’s cultural heritage. Our collections are vast and diverse and represent a wide range of topics that build the narrative of our region, with both triumphs and tribulations recorded.
The residency offers the opportunity for one creative to be immersed in the Library’s Special Collections and to use their research to create an original work that responds to the collections. Possible platforms or formats include, but are not limited to, immersive experiences, digital, audiovisual, sculpture, artworks, performance, and writing.
The Creative in Residence programme provides a $10,000 stipend for a 6 month residency. An additional budget of up to $5,000 will be provided for materials.
