Support offered
Annual membership fees are waived as part of the residency.
Resident artists start their residency by attending a weekend course in one printmaking process to gain familiarity in the print studio for orientation and induction. Following that some technical assistance is available as part of general studio use. Additional 1-1 training and mentoring can also be arranged throughout the residency to support the artists development. Some materials are not included in session fees but all are available for purchase on site.Promotional support offered
We will promote the artist during their residency by including them in our e-mail newsletter and social networking updates.
Work may be displayed in browsers in the gallery and on the website.Exhibition opportunities
Artists may submit an exhibition proposal at the end of their residency.
Accommodation offered
It is the artist’s responsibility to secure accommodation for the period they are visiting. Edinburgh Printmakers has an artist’s flat on site which is already booked extensively during 2022 for a series of residencies so there is limited availability. We can offer a reduced rate for the RSA residencies of £60 per night but this is subject to availability and must be booked in advance when scheduling residency for artist living outside Edinburgh. We can also put the word out via our members forum to look for members with available accommodation.
Alternative accommodation
Edinburgh has large availability of B+Bs, hostels and rented rooms in flats.
