See professional craftspeople work in ceramics, glass, metal and textiles!
Operating 11 months of the year—February to December—in full view of the public, the Craft Studio is a unique Canadian institution that assists emerging craftspeople to establish professional careers while at the same time exposing the public to the world of contemporary craft. These two goals are accomplished through residencies, exhibitions, workshops, lectures and craft courses.
If you have recently graduated from a recognized craft, design or art college/university and are interested in pursuing a full-time career in craft, you should consider an artists residency in the Craft Studio.
The Craft Studio residency programme acts as a stepping stone between school and a professional career. It is designed to assist and promote emerging, professional craftspeople by providing time, facilities, professional development programmes and resources to create and develop work.
Full-time openings in Hot-glass, Metal, Ceramics and Textiles
Summer openings in Metal, Textiles and Glass when space permits
