Description
Residency Dates: March 6th to April 3rd, 2025
The Scottish Borders has a rich history of textile making and trading. Because of this, we are happy to create this residency opportunity for a textile artist at any stage of their career who would enjoy a tranquil and immersive environment to focus on their craft.
While we do not have a studio specifically designed or equipped for textiles, we will provide private studio space, on-site accommodation, and a weekly stipend of £350.
There are no expectations about what you will use the residency for, but we hope the selected artist will conduct at least one public event such as a creative workshop (for adult participants), a talk, demonstration, performance or educational activity.
You will be able to spend time with other artists and makers on site, along with another visiting artist also on residency. Our Creative Director, Dr James Fox will provide mentorship during your stay.
