Sir John Soane's Museum has launched the second edition of its Artist at Soane residency programme.
This extraordinary opportunity invites artists to immerse themselves in the Museum's historic Drawing Office.
Located in the heart of London, and attracting over 100,000 visitors a year, the Museum is home to the remarkable collection of Sir John Soane, renowned British architect and collector.
Artists, designers, makers and creatives working in various media are encouraged to apply, provided that drawing plays a central role in their practice.
Two artists will be hosted at the museum each year, one in Spring and one in Autumn. Residents will receive financial support and guidance throughout the residency.
Artist fee:
Artists will be contracted for a minimum of 12 days working either in the Museum or in their studio during the three month period. The artist will be engaged over a pre-agreed number of days in the Museum either working on site, taking part in public engagement or educational activity or using the research facilities.
There will be an honorarium of £2000 per artist or collaboration, to cover materials, travel and other expenses.
There will also be the possibility of an allowance for each artist on a case by case basis, to help cover accommodation, at the discretion of the Project Managers. Please note that this will not cover international artists' travel expenses or Visa application fees.
