Sparrow Artspace is located in the historic de Waal building in Bridgeland, 36 4 St NE, Calgary, AB. Applications are only open to artists in the Calgary area at this time.
We encourage applications from candidates who identify as part of racialized, Indigenous, and/or 2SLGBTQ+ communities. Art organizations are welcome to apply. Oral applications are accepted — I would love to meet with you and get to know more about what you do — please email sandra@sparrowartspace.com to arrange a time to meet.
Sparrow values creativity, community, and collaboration:
Creativity
Artists-in-residence explore their creativity by developing new work in the space and inspire creativity in others by showing their creative process.
Collaboration
Residencies are for two or more artists. Sparrow provides a space for something new to emerge when artists work together — either in a collaborative piece or simply by working side by side. Artists can apply as individuals if they are open to Sparrow looking for another artist to collaborate with.
Community
We encourage artists-in-residence to reach out to the community in a way that is unique to them, whether it be artist talks, workshops, demos, or collaborating with other artists.
