D6: Culture in Transit are visual arts producers and policy advisors, promoting the role of artists in the sustainable development of towns and cities. Working with extraordinary artists and intrepid partners, they develop projects which capture and reveal the stories that unite us. Through research, commissioning, and presentation their programme promotes the value of the arts in creating fairer, informed and more generous societies.
The residency programme provides opportunities for artists to develop their practice. Furthermore they arrange artists talks and networking events for the residents so that they can be introduced to new networks and present their work to a wide audience. The artists studio is based in their offices in Newcastle in the United Kingdom. They offer funded residency opportunities throughout the year. If you are interested in financing a residency yourself or are planning on raising your own funding, please contact them at d6@d6culture.org.
