About our 2025 residencies
We are pleased to announce the Connecting Threads 2025 residency programme, offering up to six paid and supported residency opportunities for creative practitioners based in the River Tweed catchment area.

Our artist residencies form a key strand of our programme for 2025, under the overall theme of Watery Commons. We’re interested in your ideas of a watery commons that might bubble up on multiple scales across time and place. How can artists and creative practitioners navigate connections between the local and the global, the bodily and the systemic, the material and the metaphorical?

Full details of our 2025 residency open call.
