In from the Margins: A Printmaking Residency for Displaced Artists

Five printmaking studios across Europe are inviting applications from artists who identify as refugees or with experience of displacement.

Artists will participate a 1-month long printmaking residency as part of the European residency programme In from the Margins, funded by Creative Europe.

30 artists will be selected in total, will have the opportunity to work in a print medium of their choice and will be supported to develop their practice practically and professionally. Throughout the residency programme we will be welcoming refugee and migrant communities in the studios to engage with resident artists, to share their own stories and create new work which will be shared between our project members and the wider visual arts community in Europe. The programme will culminate in a group exhibition at Edinburgh Printmakers in spring 2023.

Made possible with the support of the Creative Europe Programme of the European Union.
