A Guide to Artist Residencies @ 126

126 presents:

Artist Residencies are an extremely viable and practical approach for an artist at any level of their career, to challenge, sustain and develop a significant studio practice.
Fiona Kelly will give an in depth professional development workshop on the topic of artist residencies; what facilities you use to find them, how to apply, the available funding and what documentation is required of you to display your work in the best possible light. She will demonstrate how to build an artist CV and the best way to write a clear and concise proposal.
A prologue to these demonstrations will be a brief presentation of her experiences while on residency and how they facilitate, develop and fuel her professional practice.
The workshop will include a Q & A session.
To book a place, please email contact@126.ie
Workshop Fee:
€5 for 126 Members
€15 for non-members
