“It’s been great to work in the studio with such a great team of artists around you that understand your practice. We’re all ceramicists! It’s been so helpful to have that peer critique and support for each other, even it’s just checking in on what you are working on.” – Stephanie Doddridge, 215 Magill 2023 recipient
WHY APPLY?
A residency provides you with a dedicated studio space outside of your usual surroundings. For the term of the residency, you will have time and space for reflection and experimentation as you delve deeper into your practice, create new work, meet other artists, and be exposed to a community of creative practitioners outside of your regular network. By meeting other artists and makers, you will be exposed to new ideas and ways of working as you share more than just equipment.
