The UNESCO - Aschberg Bursaries for Artists Programme

Residency at Bundanon

As a gift to the Australian people, Arthur Boyd’s vision for Bundanon was to provide an inspirational haven for artists of every discipline and at all stages in their careers. Studio space and accommodation is available from 4-6 weeks.

Bundanon will provide the UNESCO- Aschberg Laureate with the following:
Round trip travel to and from venue
Accomodation and artistic work space
$350AUD per week subsistence allowence for meals and incidentals
Travel insurance

As part of Bundanon’s Education Program the Laureate may be requested to open their studio to the public for a maximum of two sessions and also offer a limited number of workshops (supported by an Education Officer). If the Laureate is a performing or new media artist and/or writer, they may be asked to contribute to Bundanon events and public programs. This is vountary and not a condition of the residency.
