CREATIVE QUARTERS
MAKE YOURSELF AT HOME. MAKE SOMETHING REMARKABLE.
Great work needs room to happen. Room to think. To experiment. To make mistakes. To start again. To discover what an idea might become when given the time and space to develop
Creative Quarters is CrownKeepers’ three-month artist residency designed to provide creatives with a place to live, create and develop a body of work for exhibition at DUPP&SWAT.
Because sometimes creativity needs more than an opportunity. It needs time, space and room to grow!
Great work needs room to happen.
MORE THAN A PLACE TO STAY. A PLACE TO CREATE.
Creative Quarters is rooted in a simple belief: artist deserves the conditions necessary to do their work.
Over the course of three months, participating creatives will have the opportunity to focus on their practice, explore new ideas and develop work that reflects their creative voice.
The residency is designed to culminate in an exhibition at DUPP&SWAT, creating a pathway from artistic development to public presentation.
FROM THE SPACE TO IMAGINE IT TO THE SPACE TO SHARE IT.
THREE MONTHS. ROOM TO BECOME.
Creative Quarters is being developed around three connected experiences.
RESIDE: A place to settle in, focus and make room for creative exploration.
CREATE: Dedicated time to experiment, develop ideas and create a cohesive body of work.
EXHIBIT: An opportunity to present the resulting work at DUPP&SWAT and invite the community into the creative conversation.
BUILT FOR THE CREATIVE PROCESS.
Not every idea arrives fully formed. Some need time. Some need solitude. Some need a change of environment. Some need the freedom to explore without, immediately, having to explain what they’re becoming.
Creative Quarters is designed with that process in mind.
We’re interested in what happens when artists are given room to explore their practice and the opportunity to share what emerges.
THE PROCESS MATTERS. SO DOES THE PLATFORM.
THE NEXT CHAPTER IS TAKING SHAPE.
Creative Quarters is, currently, in development as CrownKeepers refines the residency experience, program structure and future opportunities for participating artists.
We’re excited about what this program can make possible—and the work that will, eventually, emerge from it.
