Edmonton Arts Council is inviting artists to apply to become the lead Artist in Residence hosted by Boyle Street Community Services for 1-year. Through this residency at Boyle Street Community Services (BSCS) open to all types of artists, the Edmonton Arts Council (EAC) aims to support artistic vision and growth by providing meaningful resources for an artist to explore their artistic practice. The residency will prioritize submissions that clearly support the selected artist(s)’ development, and may incorporate collaborations with the BSCS community, which includes individuals and families who are experiencing homelessness and poverty in Edmonton. This 1-year residency is aligned with the four seasons for BSCS' move in to okimaw peyesew kamik (King Thunderbird Centre).
