The London Residency Network is a recently established independent network for organisations providing domestic*, live/work artist residencies in London. The aim of the network is to promote best practice for residencies in London in dialogue with partners both across the UK and internationally. It aims to provide a network of peers for creative practitioners living in-residence across its members. It also acts as a working group for organisations with domestic residencies to share resources and ideas.
*By domestic we mean providing specialist live-in temporary accommodation for a resident artist.
Members include: 11:11, Cosmic House, Flat Time House, Kenneth Armitage Foundation, The National Trust, Studio Voltaire, Van Gogh House, The White House (Create).
