Emmanuel’s Artist-in-Residence programme supports a diverse group of artists, providing time and space for established and emerging artists to develop their work. The Emmanuel College Art Department offers a six-week artists residency to four artists, from 16 June to 28 July 2027.
The Art Department specifically aims to award a residency to one individual from each of the four categories: Ceramics, Photography, Printmaking and Social Practice. Fostering creative and artistic excellence, the residency also plays an important role in advancing the visual arts in the Emmanuel community.
The programme provides the following
- A stipend of 1,500 USD
- International artists may be eligible for reimbursement for travel and visa expenses up to an additional 1,000 USD.
- Lodging is provided in the college dorms, with access to a small kitchen.
- Artists may be invited back for a presentation during the following academic year based on teaching needs.
- Residents have access to communal college studio facilities with ample space sharing – ceramics, wood shop, print shop, photo studio, darkroom, design lab and drawing studios.
- Emmanuel will host an on campus closing exhibition for all resident artists to participate in.
- Artists will donate one piece to Emmanuel College.
