Artist in Residence Programme

Over the last twelve years, the Arts Centre’s Artist in Residence (AIR) programme has supported artistic excellence, cultural exchange, experimentation and vibrant arts activity on site.

The programme brings both local and international artists from a range of genres to the Arts Centre, and aims to strengthen links between the local and international arts scenes in association with partnering arts organisations and funding bodies.

Disciplines such as visual arts, dance, craft and object making, performance, filmmaking, creative writing and music are represented and we encourage artists to explore and diversify their practice, enabling them to realise ideas that would otherwise be unattainable or impractical. Each residency is for between one and three months.

The Arts Centre promotes its AIR programme to the local community attracting and engaging audiences through a variety of residency outputs - public art, exhibitions, performances, talks, workshops and open studios.

The Arts Centre is a national centre of diverse and exiting artistic activity.
