AirSpace Gallery: Graduate Residency 2013-14


AirSpace Gallery is delighted to invite graduating students from BA and MA Fine Art courses to apply for our fantastic graduate support scheme, which was introduced in 2012. 

Are you a student about to graduate?

Are you considering staying in, or moving to Stoke-on-Trent, and looking for that all important first opportunity in the art world?   Then this could be for you.

AirSpace is offering a fantastic opportunity to be part of an exciting and innovative artist led space in the city of Stoke-on-Trent, providing support and guidance in those all-important first months out of higher education, to two burgeoning artists.

"I would definitely recommend the residency to other artists looking for opportunities after University. The residency offers the valuable debut solo show opportunity artists dream of as well as a supportive artist community that makes the transition from University to practicing artist positive, productive and enjoyable."
