Cluster Crafts Artist-in-Residence

About the Open Call

This residency offers an intensive, short-term experience centred on making, mentorship, and exposure. Artists receive one-to-one guidance from industry professionals and access to tailored facilities, culminating in a solo exhibition and participation in a Cluster fair. The programme is designed to accelerate artistic development, expand professional networks, and position artists within London’s creative scene.

Requirements

The opportunity is open to artists of any nationality, age, or career stage, with a focus on those working in crafts or material-based practices. Applicants must demonstrate a strong artistic vision, engagement with contemporary themes, and the ability to benefit from an intensive residency. Applications typically require a biography, artist statement, residency goals, and a portfolio, and participants must be able to work in English and commit to the full four-week programme.
