As we wrap up another busy year, we'll hear from our Artists in Residence as they reflect on their time in the program, share the projects they've been developing, and offer insights into their creative practices. From early concepts and experiments to finished works and lessons learned, it's a chance to see what has been happening behind the workshop doors. We are also welcoming Georgie Szymanski, our new resident, who joined us in November.

Artists: Margot Feast, Freddy Mata Mendoza, Caleb Biffanti, Emily McRae, Georgie Szymanski.

Come along to learn more about the residency program, gain insight into the creative process, and connect with the VWA community as we close out the year together.
