Contemporary artists are invited to apply for participation in the STAC Artist In Residence Programme 2024, supported by Tipperary Arts Office.
Applicants MUST be born in or domiciled in County Tipperary.
The Aim of this award is:
One artist will be selected to participate in the Programme. We welcome applications from artists working across all forms of contemporary art practice, including socially engaged or research based work that can be shown in an exhibition context.
The award will cover a residency period from September 2024 to January 2025, culminating in an exhibition in the Main Gallery at the South Tipperary Arts Centre in January 2025.
The selected artist will be awarded €3,500 to support the creation of new work for exhibition and will also receive mentoring and curatorial support throughout the residency. Also covered will be basic installation costs, PR and exhibition opening reception. As this residency culminates in an exhibition, it is essential that artists include audience engagement plan within their proposal. Applicants must be available for the duration of the residency. Studio space is not provided, however meeting space can be made available if required during the residency.
To apply: please send a Residency Proposal (incl. budget), CV, artist statement and a PDF of no more than 10 images or media links to info@southtippartscentre.ie
Closing date: Tuesday 30th July at 5pm.
Late applications will not be accepted and the decision of the project partners is final.
