QUAD is seeking a D/deaf artist or creative based in the East Midlands to spend a month in residence in our dedicated artist studio. The studio will be available in March 2024. The selected artist will have full access to the studio (weekdays, 10am – 6pm); mentoring and curatorial support from the QUAD Programme Team (continuing from March – December 2024), and a £750 bursary. There are also additional funds available for any relevant access support that may be required.

Our ambition for this residency programme going forwards is to support underrepresented artists based close to QUAD to develop their practice and ideas in a nurturing environment. There are no set parameters for outcomes; the residency will be an opportunity to share ideas and to develop proposals for possible exhibitions (it should also be noted that the studio can be transformed into an exhibition space if the artist wishes), or to simply work on ideas, or to have the space to think. The team at QUAD will also provide support in making applications for funding; in developing new projects and continuing advice throughout the year.

This residency and mentoring opportunity includes:

• A £750 bursary
• 1 month residency in QUAD’s Artist Studio (from 4 March 2024)
• Mentoring and curatorial support across 2024
• Social media marketing support
