NSW Design Residency
The NSW Design (Early-Career) Residency, connects emerging designers with experienced mentors at Powerhouse Ultimo.
‘The Powerhouse is committed to nurturing emerging talent and supporting their growth. We believe this residency will be a pivotal opportunity, fostering the development of their work and practice.’
Valued at $75,000, the Residency supports three early career designers to enrich their professional practice during a six month residency under the guidance of experienced mentors at Powerhouse Ultimo. Each resident will receive $25,000 in financial support; mentorship by an established designer relevant to their field; studio space at Powerhouse Ultimo, including access to the museum's curators and collection, workshop facilities and technicians; and connections within the sector to develop their networks and skills.
The NSW Design (Early-Career) Residency is made possible through a partnership between Create NSW and Powerhouse as part of the Create NSW Creative Leadership Fellowship programs.
‘By investing in NSW's design talent, the NSW Government is ensuring our creative industry flourishes as an engine room for the innovation and groundbreaking design needed to meet the challenges of our times and revolutionise how we live and work. ’
