In February 2022 we announced a new call out in partnership with University of the Arts London (UAL) and Art for the Environment (AER). The programme, set up by Professor Lucy Orta, provides UAL graduates with the opportunity to apply for a two to four week fully funded residency at one of their internationally renowned host institutions, to explore concerns that define the 21st century – biodiversity, environmental sustainability social economy and human rights.

Guest Artists Space Foundation collaborated with the UAL Postgraduate Community to offer two four-week residencies hosted at our buildings in Lagos and Ijebu respectively. Applications were accepted from UAL postgraduates (MA and PhD) and recent alumni (within 24 months from graduation).

Guest Artists Space (G.A.S.) Foundation is looking for a Residency and Project Coordinator. This is a truly exciting role for someone who is passionate about working, facilitating and contributing to the burgeoning creative and cultural sector in Nigeria.

As the year draws to a close we wanted to share some of our press highlights from the last few months. The coverage spans everything from our exciting forthcoming launch of Guest Artists Space in Nigeria to our digital residency programme.

As we enter December we’re excited to bring you our final G.A.S. Lagos build update of the year. 

This month, work continues to progress well on the central workspace building on the Ecology Green Farm known as the Farm House where the principles of sustainability are reflected clearly in both the construction and design.
