Description

In 2014 the Stephen Procter Fellowship will be awarded to an International Artist. The Stephen Procter fellowship is a residency at The Australian National University School of Art Glass Workshop and $5000 towards travel. The Stephen Procter Fellowship is now open for proposals for 2014.

The Stephen Procter Fellowship was established in 2001 in memory of Stephen Procter, Head of the Glass Workshop at The Australian National University 1993–2000. The aim of the Fellowship is to assist Australian and international artists working in glass to work/study abroad. Travel and the experience of other cultures were very important to Stephen and this Fellowship is intended to be a significant and exciting link between glass communities around the world.

Fellowship

Each year the Fellowship provides $5,000 (AUD) towards travel and a residency (4 to 8 weeks) within the glass workshop at ANU to an artist working with glass. The fellowship aims to support artists with working or educational opportunities significant to their artistic practice. In 2014 this money will be made available for an International artist to travel to Australia and undertake a residency in the Glass Workshop of the Australian National University in Canberra.
