Limerick City Gallery of Art – Test Space Residency programme

Limerick City Gallery of Art (LCGA) is delighted to announce an Open Call for the upcoming 2024 edition of the Test Space Residency programme.

Test Space Residency is a programme which has been running since 2021. It facilitates studio space, financial support, and mentoring for a wide range of practitioners who wish to engage with the Gallery.

LCGA is expecting to host 4 residencies during 2024, selected through this Open Call, each for 8 weeks duration. Practitioners are asked to spend at least 15 hours per week in situ at the Gallery. Informed by a strong commitment to Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) values, the programme asks practitioners to spend this time developing an EDI related community arts practise, new project or research, and to engage with visitors, selected communities and staff at the Gallery.

This year, Test Space Residency is not just being offered to artists, but seeks inclusive applications across all art forms and disciplines. This includes: (but is not limited to) researchers, artists, curators, arts academics, educators, writers, poets, performing artists, film and media producers, and those working cross-disciplinary or in mixed media.
