OPEN CALL: Yew Chung International School artist-in-residence program in Beijing, China (October & November 2016). DEADLINE SOON: September 18, 2016.

This funded residency includes return flights, accommodation, material costs, as well as a per diem towards day-to-day costs.



Artist-in-Residence will be provided with a space on the school campus to use as a studio space. Project proposals that incorporate student participation are highly encouraged. Artist-in-Residence will also be expected to provide mentorship and studio critiques to IB diploma senior art students (8 students), give artist talks, workshops, and present a final exhibition/display. Past experience collaborating with youth or students is highly preferred.

  • Return flights (up to 1,000 USD)
  • Accommodation in Red Gate Residency downtown apartment

Individuals from all nationalities are encouraged to apply with no restrictions based on age or medium. Project proposals will be evaluated based on their feasibility, creativity, and artist past experience working with students by a jury composed of Red Gate Residency and Yew Chung International School staff.
