Create SpaceArtist Residency Program
A place for new work, new ideas and new collaborations.
The Create Space Artist Residency Program fosters an evolving community of practice, in partnership with leading Sydney-based arts organisations. Championing experimental and interdisciplinary practice, the program invites artists into the Sydney Opera House, providing a physical space to further develop practice across multi-artforms.
Inspired by the architecture of the House itself, Create Space artist residency provides a platform for pioneering artists and makers to test new ground, challenge conventions and expand the boundaries of what is possible.
Create Space works alongside artists with lived experience of disability, those from Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CALD) backgrounds, and those from the Lesbian Gay Bi Trans Queer Intersex + (LGBTQI+) community to come together to develop new work.
