Artist Residencies in West Dean with Housing

West Dean College

West Dean, United Kingdom

The West Dean College Residency Programme at West Dean College of Arts and Conservation in the UK offers professional artists, writers, makers, and researchers onsite stays of one to three weeks (with occasional longer options like six weeks) to develop work, experiment with materials, and access workshops and facilities. Residents engage with students through tutorials, workshops, and presentations, continuing the legacy of founder Edward James in supporting early- to mid-career practitioners focused on craft, making, and sustainability. Various partnership residencies provide full board accommodation, studio space, and sometimes stipends.
