Wysing Arts Centre is changing. By the end of 2025, a new, multi-year approach to commissioning will be underway; artists and young people will have more power in our organisation; our site will be more biodiverse and more accessible through our capital project, and we’ll have launched a new website and brand.

This year’s Residency programme brings together artists who share a deep commitment to their ecologies and entanglements. Many support the work of other artists through small-scale infrastructure, from a project space in rural Georgia in the Southern US to a political library in Birmingham, UK. Others attend to their surroundings, using found objects, charcoal, or dried flowers to bear witness to personal, environmental and collective histories.
