Studio 1.10 Residency

Since 2010 A.P.T has provided temporary project studios to artists.  These fully funded studios offer artists the opportunity to develop new work, by taking risks without the financial concerns of studio costs.

The Studio 1.10 Residency provides free studio space for 12 months.  At the end of those 12 months, the resident artist will be offered our Gallery for a 2 week period, for an exhibition of their own work, or with chosen artists for a group exhibition or events programme.

Deadline for applications:
5pm, 27 September ‘23

Opportunity

We invite applications from artists who live or work in the London Borough of Lewisham, and who are under-represented in the visual arts or have faced barriers to access due to their protected characteristics*

The opportunity is aimed at applicants who have at least 3 years of experience practicing as an artist in any media. We understand visual arts in the broadest possible sense and encourage applications from those who have not necessarily had a formal art education.

The resident artist will receive:

  • 1 year fully paid studio

  • The opportunity of an end of year event/exhibition in our gallery.

  • Opportunities to meet relevant members in the community of APT – artists, trustees and staff

  • Opportunities to take part in Gallery & Programming Sub-Committee meetings and the Annual General Meeting, to gain understanding and experience of how an art charity like APT operates.

  • Opportunities to be involved in other APT led projects throughout the year.
