Country Arts SA is inviting artists from all disciplines to apply for a three-week residency at Grindell’s Hut located in the heart of the Vulkathunha – Gammon Ranges National Park, one of the many stunning parks in the Flinders Ranges & Outback region of South Australia. The park forms part of the traditional country of the Adnyamathanha people and is rich with cultural significance. It is also a haven for many rare and endangered plants and animals.
During their residency period the artist is afforded time to undertake deep creative research and/or create new work responding to and inspired by the Northern Flinders and surrounding communities. The selected recipient is not expected to produce finished artworks and there are no set creative outcomes from the residency.
One artist will be selected to take part in the residency program which will run from 6 – 27 October 2024.
Country Arts SA will provide:
- An artist fee of $3,000 +gst (or $4,000 for collaborative teams by negotiation)
- A travel contribution of $500 and living away from home allowance of $350 per week ($1,050 for the full 3 week period)
- A fee of $500 to cover costs of any workshop materials
- One night accommodation each way en route to and from Grindell’s Hut
