Description

The In Vitro Residency will launch in 2026 as a joint residency with Summerhall Arts and the Hugo Burge Foundation. The residency includes 24-hour access to your own studio in the iconic Summerhall building in central Edinburgh with the opportunity to exhibit in a gallery on-site.

This opportunity was created for artists who cannot step away from their life for weeks at a time to join accommodated residencies. Instead, it will offer artists the time, space, and community of our regular residencies but with the freedom to come and go — to create in bursts, to stay connected to home, and to weave their practice alongside the rest of their lives, including work commitments.
