Due to border restrictions during COVID-19 we are unable to offer our Travelling in Artist Residency.
This means we are able to open up another beautiful studio for local artists to access over the next 6 months! If you have a project where you’d like to make use of the space then see below for all the details.
We understand artists have been particularly affected by the impacts of COVID-19.
For this reason we are happy to renegotiate rent if your application is successful.

SELECTION PROCESS
The WTS Curatorial Committee will assess applications based on the relevance of the artist’s practice to Watch This Space’s aims as a contemporary experimental art space:
To create opportunities for local artists’ work to be discovered and made visible through hosting contemporary art exhibitions.
To provide opportunities for local, interstate and international artists to enrich the artistic and cultural life of Alice Springs through the delivery of high quality contemporary art activities.
To foster an inclusive creative community of artists who share skills and experiences with each other by accessing the onsite gallery and studio space.
To offer professional development opportunities for artists including artistic/cultural collaborations and skills development.
To nurture the full breadth of contemporary art activities including multi-disciplinary art forms, new media and installation work.
Note: All programming decisions are made by the WTS Curatorial Committee. The committee is made up of three to five Alice Springs based artists and arts workers.
