Artist Residencies - An Online Course

 Are you an artist who loves to travel?

Are you excited about creating art in new landscapes around the world?

Do you long to meet other international artists and be inspired by new cultures and environments?

If you answered yes, then artist residencies are for you!

 


For those who are creative and love to travel, artist residencies are the Holy Grail. From Antarctica to the Arctic Circle and everywhere between, artist residencies are dedicated places for creatives to focus on their work, travel to cool places and meet others from around the world.

I have attended over 30 residencies in 18 different countries and counting, including Turkey, Iceland, New Zealand and India. I’ve been asked so many times about my experiences, that I am offering this as my first online course.

I take you through all the steps to find the right residency for you, how to create a compelling application, and hopefully to become an artist in residence at the residency of your choice. EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW!

For a limited time this course is just $39!
