Past Event
Funded residencies for artists based in Scotland whose careers have been impacted by a breast cancer diagnosis and who have undergone successful treatment and are up to five years in remission.
In collaboration with The Bridge Awards, Cove Park is pleased to offer a further five fully funded residencies in May 2026 for artists based in Scotland whose careers have been impacted by a breast cancer diagnosis and who have undergone successful treatment and are up to five years in remission.
The Bridge Awards Residencies will run in parallel for ten days from 4 May – 14 May 2026. People based in Scotland, at any stage of their creative career, and working in any art form or creative discipline, are eligible to apply. The aim is to provide the artist, writer, creative practitioner, or researcher with the time and space to reconnect with their creative practice within the peaceful, supportive, and inspiring context of Cove Park.
The emphasis of the residency will be upon individual work, but we are pleased to confirm that Scottish Ensemble will participate in this programme again to offer a music and wellbeing session.
We are also delighted to offer during the residency one group session led by Lesley Howells, Consultant Clinical Psychologist and Maggie’s Lead Psychologist, and the opportunity of a one-to-one session with Lesley if the resident feels this would be helpful.
Deadline: 12 January 2026
