Creative Residency
Creative Residency
We create partnerships to try out ideas, test new approaches and add to the city’s cultural vibrancy.
Creative Residencies encourage makers and experts to pilot new partnerships with organisations.
This a unique and imaginative initiative as both sport and art are such valuable vehicles for engaging in the moment and nurturing our lives in challenging, but often fun ways ... I feel inspired and excited to explore this new challenge.Sharon Kelly, Artist in Residence, Creative Residency in Art and Sport
By bringing creative people and organisations together, and by connecting through culture and conversations, we will develop and share new ways of working.
