HBB's Artist in Residence Program provides artists with dedicated time and space for artistic exploration, experimentation, and the development of new work. The self-funded residency is best suited to independent artists with own transport.
We welcome creative proposals in the fields of music composition/sound art, visual arts, sculpture, installation, new media, craft, creative writing, architecture and landscape/garden/ecological design or anyone with a love of the natural environment.
Proposals are welcome throughout the year, each season has its own creative possibilities.
The Artist in Residence Program offers Farm Art Stays and Studio only residencies.
Farm Art Stay Residency
The Farm Art Stay is a live-in residency ideal for regional, inter-state or international artists working in all types of media, writers, musicians, dance or performance artists. The live in residency space is available for four days to two weeks. It includes private bedroom and bathroom in the farm house and private studio space in the Banana Shed. Kitchen, laundry and living spaces are shared. There are no creative expectations. Farm Art Stays are an opportunity for time out of your usual routines and spaces to develop your practice.
Studio Residency
Opportunities exist for short and long term projects using the studios, gallery and workshop spaces. The Banana Shed hosts two private studios 14.4 square metres. Each provide safe accessibility and flexibility appropriate to the needs of the artists to develop their practice. A large gallery/workshop space is an open space consisting of 64.1 square metres of space and white walls. Directly outside and undercover is the Dock Space suitable for workshops or exhibiting sculptural artworks. The 20 acres of natural rural environment offers great amenities that greatly enhance the creative experience.
