Studio Residency at Artspace!
Applications open until November 20

Artspace welcomes submissions from professional artists, curators, writers, and/or collectives to submit an application for a one-year
(January - December 2021),
self-directed studio residency at Artspace.  

Deadline: November 20, 2021 
 

The purpose of this residency is to provide space for creation, research and the development of work. This residency can be used to develop a new project or continue an ongoing practice. Residency artist(s) are not expected to finish a project in the allotted time.  

Artspace will provide a 1000 square foot private studio space to the selected artist(s) for one year. The studio has a private entrance and washroom separate from Artspace’s main facilities, and has distinct rooms as well as larger common space.  Through this residency, the artist(s) will also have access to the Artspace media lab, library and equipment, as well as one-on-one curatorial support from Artspace staff.  

 The selected artist(s) will be responsible for covering costs associated with the purchase of materials, the shipment of artwork/supplies, travel costs, and living expenses. This residency is ideal for an artist(s) based in Peterborough or the surrounding area.

Back to the Basement with Ann Hirsch
Weekly starting November 4
th 

Ann Hirsch is a video and performance artist who works at the crossroads of technology, popular culture, feminism, and shame. 

In 2010, Ann Hirsch intercepted VH1 hit reality TV dating show “Frank the Entertainer in a Basement Affair”. As “Annie”, Hirsch performed as one of fifteen women trying to win over Frank Maresca, himself a former reality TV contestant on “I Love New York 2” and “I Love Money”.

Watch with us! Over the course of seven weeks, Hirsch will re-watch their performance in “A Basement Affair” with us, in an artist talk-cum-watch with me-cum-”I react to” video that’s popular on YouTube, creating a social atmosphere for viewers while reflecting on her performance more than 10 years later. 

This series of talks is free to attend!
