Call to Artists: Artist in Residence Program at the Shadbolt Centre for the Arts
The City of Burnaby’s Shadbolt Centre for the Arts is an award-winning, multi-purpose community arts facility located in Burnaby's picturesque Deer Lake Park. The centre programs a year-round schedule of arts classes, performances, festivals, exhibitions and special events and has a 15 year tradition of providing outstanding artistic opportunities to emerging and established artists.
The newly formalized Artist-in-Residence Program provides opportunities for professional artists with a minimum of 5 years experience from all artistic mediums to work on both individual creative projects and to contribute to the development of their artistic discipline in the community.
Artist-in-Residence participants receive contributions on behalf of the Shadbolt Centre through in-kind support in the form of studio, rehearsal and performance space. Staff time and resources will be allocated on a case-by-case basis and in keeping with the selection criteria and committee.
