Deadline: September 11, 2024

Applications are open for the University of Johannesburg (UJ) Artists in Residence Programme 2025. Designed to stimulate arts practice as research, the programme is targeted at artist-academics working in a range of disciplines. The UJ Artists in Residence Programme welcomes applications from emerging and established artists, from across the globe, but preferably with a link to Africa.

The Artists in Residence Programme requires artists to complete at least one creative output project within a 12-month, or 24-month period, for projects that fall within the Film and Television and Literary Arts disciplines. Arts-practice research and the resultant projects need to meet requirements of the Department of Higher Education for creative output.
