The Art House (TAH) and the Royal Over-Seas League (ROSL) are delighted to announce the return of this UK-based residency opportunity in 2026, for artists living and working outside of the UK in a commonwealth (or former commonwealth) country, the US/EU/EEA or Switzerland. TAH and ROSL are seeking proposals from artists who would engage in a two-month supported residency at TAH’s purpose-built accessible studios in Wakefield, between May and July 2026.

The opportunity is to help develop the practice of artists living and working internationally who have not yet worked or exhibited in the UK. The successful artist(s) are not required to make an object or exhibition, but they will receive curatorial and technical advice if required.

Artists are encouraged to keep a residency blog/or help share activities on social media and take part in a film to document the residency.

The residency offers:

Fully covered travel costs
Fully covered visa costs
Living costs covered with a per diem
Funded studio space and accommodation in The Art House
Funded access to a fully equipped Print Studio, Ceramic Studio and Darkroom, each includes the support of an onsite technician
An opportunity to discuss showing either, an existing, or a new body of work created during the residency, or work in progress at TAH as part of an Open Studio, or potentially elsewhere at TAH
