The Good Hatchery is currently inviting applications for its spring time residency programmes. As part of its ethos, The Good Hatchery will be providing ambitious emerging artists with free accommodation and studio space. Selected artists will be asked to cover their household bills and share in the ongoing upkeep of this artist run space. This will include wood chopping and participation in ongoing maintenance projects. Applicants must be aware that many facilities at the Hatchery are basic and involve elements of sustainable living.

Residencies will be offered of various durations ranging from 2 weeks to 7 weeks and are available to art practioners from all backgrounds. Applicants with manual skills and their own transport are preferred but ultimately applications will be assessed on their artistic merit. Joint applications are also welcome.
