An explosion of wildflowers pirouette in the gentle breeze. Dandelions rise amongst the silken blades of grass. I watch their quiet decline into a whisper. The seed, a pearl of silver is blown by nature’s sweet breath.

Nicky Ginsberg, Creative Director, NG Art Creative

As a not for profit association there are four different subsidised packages available; and your contribution is fundamental to the success of the residency.

Breakfast and dinner is included in the cost of each residency package.

The preferred length of stay is 3, 4 or 6 weeks. However we can be flexible depending on your project outcome. The use of our shared car for the duration of your stay is available for a small contribution.

Fostering Creativity and Supporting Emerging Artists

We believe in the fundamental importance of nurturing artists and providing them with a platform to create and thrive.

Our residency program is dedicated to fostering the growth of multidisciplinary creatives by offering them a space for respite, inspiration, and nourishment, enabling them to fully realize their artistic goals.

As a not-for-profit association, we are proud to support young creatives under the age of 30 by offering generous subsidies throughout the year.

This commitment ensures that financial barriers do not hinder their potential, allowing them to focus entirely on their craft and vision.

Our mission is to cultivate a vibrant environment where creativity flourishes, and the next generation of artists can make a meaningful impact.

As an emerging artist, finding sources of funding for projects, especially international ones, can be daunting and involve a complex grant application process.
