Branscombe House Artist Residency RFP

Request for Proposal (RFP) Branscombe House
2021 Artist Residency
Branscombe House
4900 Steveston Highway
Richmond, BC



Each year, the City of Richmond’s Arts, Culture and Heritage Services department invites professional artists in all disciplines (including writers, composers, visual artists, musicians, theatre artists, video, multi-disciplinary and performance artists) to submit proposals for an 11-month live-in residency to begin in January 2021 and run until mid-December 2021. 

Branscombe House is a recently restored Edwardian style house located in the residential area of Steveston. The self-contained two-bedroom suite upstairs is offered as an artist residence/studio with rent 100% subsidized in exchange for a minimum of 22 hours/month (240 hours total) of artist-led community-engaged programming. 

Visit Branscombe House Artist-in-Residency for further information about the current residency program and here for details about the artist's suite in Branscombe House. This residency is located in a heritage building and, as such, the artist's suite is not wheelchair accessible.

The Branscombe House 2021 Artist Residency RFP open call is now closed. Thank you for your interest in the upcoming residency program. Shortlisted artists will be contacted by email or telephone for interviews. Please note, due to the ongoing and potential impacts of COVID-19, the adjudication timeline is approximated and may change at any time.
