2026 Spring/Summer Arts Programs Webinar
Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity
Program Dates: April, 2026 – March, 2027
Webinar session: Wednesday, September 24, 2025 @ 10am
We are excited to announce the reopening of the Leighton Artist Studios for the 2026/2027 season, with some exciting updates. Residencies will now be offered in three distinct streams: Solo, Groups and Photography. Lasting from 1 to 6 weeks, these self-directed residencies support both individual and collaborative projects. Designed for artists working independently without production or technical support, they provide the freedom to set your own schedule in a quiet, immersive setting. Artists from all disciplines — including: Curatorial practice, design, music, theatre arts, visual arts, writing and interdisciplinary projects — are welcome to apply.
