Cove Park is pleased to offer residencies for individuals, collaborators, groups, and organisations with their own funding to take part in our annual programme. We welcome artists, cultural practitioners, writers, and researchers – from every creative and academic discipline – able to meet the costs of a residency through, for example, the direct support of their own academic institutions or via awards from public funders or foundations.

Our popular annual programme of Subsidised Winter Residencies will run between December 2025 and March 2026. All residencies during this period are offered at a reduced cost. This year, applications for this programme can be submitted at any time between 25 September 2025 and 23 February 2026.

Residencies are self-directed and designed to ensure those taking part have the time and facilities required to develop their own work. Cove Park’s small and dedicated professional team are happy to support the research and work of all our residents, and are available for informal conversations and meetings, in preparation for and during the residency period.

Applications are accepted on a rolling basis – more information is available in the Programme Information and Application Guidelines.
