SPACE STUDIO offers seven spacious artist studios, including one dedicated to printmaking. Each year, we host three to four group residencies, for which artists from around the country are invited to apply. Thematic residencies offer space for artists to push the boundaries of artistic mediums, while independent residencies are crafted for individual needs. Our programming includes mentorship sessions with artists and curators, site visits, inspirational trips, workshops, talks and masterclasses. Each residency ends with an Open Studio where audiences are invited to engage with the art and learn more about the artists and their processes.
