Congratulations!
You have been selected by one of our scouts because they think the EKWC could be the right place for you.
About the EKWC artist-in-residence program
The EKWC annually welcomes around 60 creative professionals of different disciplines from all parts of the world, and all stages of experience — from emerging to established artists, from beginners to those well-experienced with ceramic materials and techniques — for a twelve week residency. We offer accommodation, studios, workshops, basic-and-advanced equipment and guidance from our experienced advisors and staff.
Residency
A residency at EKWC offers an opportunity to explore the possibilities of ceramics and to expand their technical and material knowledge.
On average, sixteen residents stay at the EKWC at the same time, with a new resident starting, and a resident completing, their residency every week. This means that the composition of the resident group is steadily evolving over a given resident’s twelve-week stay, and that residents have the opportunity to meet many new peers and expand their respective creative networks.
What does it mean to be selected by a scout mean?
We ask you to mention the name of your scout in your application. This will work as a recommendation, and we will consider your application with extra attention and care. And, when the selection committees give a positive assessment, guarantees the EKWC grant.
