Residency

Our residency program offers a unique opportunity for artists and creatives to immerse themselves in a supportive and inspiring environment. We believe in fostering a community of collaboration and innovation.

Through our residency program, participants have access to dedicated studio space, where you can engage with like-minded individuals, exchange ideas, and gain new perspectives. Our program is designed to encourage experimentation and growth, providing the time and space for artists to develop their practice.

We believe that by supporting emerging talent and fostering a culture of creativity, we can contribute to the artistic landscape.

Residency Workshops

We have a workshop for wet felting and for natural dyeing, a textile workshop with looms, sewing machines and embroidery machine, a knitting machine, needle felting and tufting workshop.

Our workshops are constantly under development, so feel free to inquire about equipment.

Please note that technicians will not be leading workshops. You must be trained to operate the listed equipment and machines and take full responsibility for the proper handling.
