Description

The Art House (TAH) and the Royal Over-Seas League (ROSL) are delighted to announce the return of this incredible UK-based residency opportunity in 2026, for artists living and working outside of the UK in a commonwealth (or former commonwealth) country, the US/EU/EEA or Switzerland. We are committed to supporting those who want to raise their practice and profile here in the UK.

TAH and ROSL are seeking proposals from artists who would engage in a two-month supported residency at TAH’s purpose-built accessible studios in Wakefield, between May and July 2026. The opportunity is to help develop the practice of artists living and working internationally who have not yet worked or exhibited in the UK. The successful artist(s) are not required to make an object or exhibition, but they will receive curatorial and technical advice if required. We are keen to support two artists, staying with us at the same time.
