Thematic residency
Blueprint for Happiness
July 13–August 21, 2015

Blueprint for Happiness is a thematic residency for artists exploring creative practice outside of the gallery. We will support each other in our individual studio projects and collaborate during the residency, delving into the conceptual, practical and psychological considerations for working in the public realm. Thematic residencies offer a structured program where artists are brought together to investigate a specific theme. We invite all mediums of visual arts practice to apply, including curators, architects and designers.

Apply by March 4.
