Residency Overview

Students will be assigned a mentor but must be able to work independently in the studio.

Students are allocated 8 - 12 hours per week to work in the studio at a subsidized rate of $50 per week.

Successful applicants will provide their own materials, including screens, fabrics, pigments, dyes and auxiliaries.

Most studio-owned equipment is available for use by student residents who have undergone studio orientation. Residents will supply their own specialized equipment. Please note not all equipment and textile processes can be accommodated in the studio.

Student residency placements are open to art and design students exploring textiles in their work. Students who successfully complete a residency may be eligible to renew another residency for the following academic term.
