Artist Residency Program

The Vancouver Biennale’s Residency Program supports the professional development of emerging artists with an unprecedented opportunity for a cultural exchange between nations and artistic disciplines. Young artists of merit are invited to participate in a small cross-cultural,  multidisciplinary groups to create social interventions inspired by their residency and in response to the exhibition theme.

Each resident artist will lead public talks and public workshops through an alliance of local artist studios, local galleries and local arts organizations to engage a large local audience in each event. The learning, development and networking opportunities to our local arts community are immense and the richness of experience and diversity of dialogue will be exceptional in our city.
