Request for Proposals: Art City 2025/26 Guest Artist Residency Series
About This Opportunity
Art City invites North America-based artists to submit proposals for our 2025/26 Guest Artist Residency Series. Founded by artist Wanda Koop, Art City is a not-for-profit community art studio based in West Broadway, a culturally diverse and densely populated neighbourhood located on Treaty No. 1 Territory in the heart of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. Art City provides people of all ages and abilities with innovative, barrier-free art programming, featuring guest artists who lead workshops based on their own art practices. Art City’s primary goal is to provide space and tools for anyone who wishes to express themselves creatively, with a focus on children and youth.
Restrictions
The Guest Artist Residency Series is designed for contemporary artists to share their practices in a community context. It is a collaborative process with a high level of engagement by participants of all ages. Workshop content must be appropriate for youth participation. Many Art City participants are from Indigenous and Newcomer communities. Artists and Knowledge Keepers that belong to these groups are strongly encouraged to apply.
