Residency Opportunity: Sturt Craft Centre

Sturt Craft Centre
invites applications from experienced craft practitioners to the Sturt
Artist-in-Residence program.  Residencies occur in the craft disciplines
of ceramics, jewellery/metalwork, textiles and woodwork. Four to six
residencies occur at Sturt each year.
Sturt encourages small scale production and individually designed work which may be promoted through Sturt Gallery. 
Each year
professional residencies may be awarded specifically to develop a body
of work which can be produced and made, at Sturt, during the Residency
time.
Sturt sees the
residency program as an important adjunct to its overall aim of
providing support for Australian contemporary craft and design through a
program of teaching, retail, exhibition and residencies. The emphasis
of the residency program will be to support craftspeople and
designer-makers who are sympathetic to this philosophy.
Three categories of residency are available:
• Professional Residency

  • A short written proposal, briefly describing type of work to be carried out.
