Artist residencies and creative stays

Different ways to create

Artaway connects artists with hosts who have inspiring spaces to share. Creative stays are clearly presented as self-funded, funded, or exchange, so both sides understand the arrangement before they connect.

Creative opportunities can be hard to find outside established networks. Artaway brings different kinds of stays together so artists can see what each involves and connect directly with hosts.

Self-funded

The artist pays the stated fee for accommodation, workspace, a programme, or other support.

Browse self-funded stays

Exchange

The artist contributes agreed creative or practical work in return for accommodation, workspace, meals, or other support. A few hosts cover the costs outright instead.
