Applications are now being accepted for 6 Artist Residencies at Cork Printmakers for artists who identify as asylum seekers, refugees or have experienced displacement.

Applications are now being accepted for the position of Artist in Residence at Cork Printmakers across June, July and August, 2022. There are six residencies available in total, as part of their Creative Europe funded project In From The Margins.

The residencies aim to be an empowering platform for artists who have experienced displacement to develop their practice, to experiment with printmaking, to make new connections within their host communities, and for their work to be professionally produced, exhibited and viewed by a wider audience.

During the residency, artists will be supported by the Studio Managers to produce work and progress their practice. Artists will also work with the Project Manager to plan the best way to publicly share their experience, practice and/or showcase their work; and will give input on developing engagement and outreach activities with refugee, asylum seeker, displaced and migrant communities as well as local schools.

ARTIST SUPPORTS

Support for each artist will include:

  • One month free membership and usage of Cork Printmakers print studio facilities, with induction, training, technical support and a materials budget.
  • Self-catering accommodation provided.
  • Travel costs within Ireland, to/from Cork, at the beginning and end of the residency.
  • Artists who have the right to work in the EU will be offered an Artist Fee.

You can find eligibility requirements and instructions on how to apply on the Cork Printmakers website. Application deadline has been extended 12 noon on 12th April.
