Hot Glass Residency - North Lands Creative Glass

29/10/2012

North Lands Creative Glass in Lybster, Caithness is offering a six week residency for four talented artists working in hot glass taking place from 1 April to 10 May 2013.

This opportunity is for artists who have an interest in exploring new forms of making, or ways of working, through collaboration. The residency will offer the opportunity to create work and collaborate with other artists while also developing new techniques and ideas. It will allow artists to enhance their own practice while working within a peer group to share and gain further skills. Artists-in-residence benefit from a comprehensive range of facilities in the Alastair Pilkington Studio.

For further information, please contact info@northlandsglass.com, or call 01593721229, or visit www.northlandsglass.com/whats-on/residencies.

The deadline is Friday 16 November 2012.
