The Farm Margaret River Artist Residency

A leading Arts Residency program in Western Australia, offering a unique opportunity for artists to develop work that engages thoughtfully with the land.

With a specific focus on site-responsive projects, the Residency provides an immersive space for creative inquiry, fostering connections between the artist(s), environment, and community. It supports artists who are committed to rigorous research, experimentation, and dialogue—encouraging new ways of thinking about land and our relationship to it .

  • Applicants must be at least 18 years old.
  • A good level of written and spoken English is required.
  • Applicants must be professional visual artists, recognised by their peers.
