Le Centre d’artistes la Constellation bleue organise une résidence d’artistes à Caraquet N.-B. du 1er au 30 septembre 2025. On invite trois artistes pendant le mois de septembre sur la thématique : La Baie des Chaleurs, habiter la mer intérieure.

La résidence accueille, en plus, pour la dernière semaine, un/e commissaire-mentor. Les artistes exploreront les liens entre le réel et l’imaginaire en considérant la Baie des Chaleurs comme un lieu de rencontre et une porte d’entrée. Les artistes seront invités à parcourir le territoire, tant physiquement que métaphoriquement, et à s’immerger dans ce lieu, telle une mer intérieure. Le-la commissaire-mentor accompagnera les artistes durant la dernière semaine pour s’enquérir de leur démarche lors de discussions, d’échanges et de conseils sur leur travail.

Date de tombée : vendredi 18 juillet 2025, 23h59.

Proposals and supporting documents must be posted on the website using a dedicated portal.

The deadline for applications is 2400 (AT), Sunday March 30th, 2025.

Every July and August, artists in the City of Fredericton Summer Artist in Residence Program spend two weeks ‘in residence’ at either Killarney Lake Park or the Fredericton Botanic Garden, creating special projects and art pieces inspired by their surroundings.

Residents and visitors are encouraged to visit the parks and talk with the artists to learn more about their work and creative process. Be sure to follow the artists’ social media to watch their creations evolve and for updates on upcoming events, including artist talks, demos, workshops, and Q&As. (more…)

Mother Earth has gifted us with the four seasons. Each of these seasons hold teachings for our people that help us connect and learn from the lands of our ancestors, from the behaviors of the mammals and fish, from the changing of trees, from the light of the sun and the cycles of life that provide lessons that help us thrive and grow. Traditionally we spent every season in preparation for the next.

For this year’s Mawi’Art: Wabanaki Artist Collective Connections Residencies, we are asking for proposals with that theme in mind.

This residency opportunity, hosted by Struts Gallery is part of an artistic project by Joshua Schwebel called One Hand Washes the Other.

The project examines how philanthropic donations from the mining industry are integrated into Canada’s arts and education systems. The Paydirt Residency puts a form of counter-philanthropy into practice. Funded by Schwebel’s own arts grant from the Canada Council for the Arts, this residency aims to amplify artistic and cultural actors whose practices resist colonial extractivism.
