Where Art Meets Australian Heritage
Artist House nurtures creative excellence in the heart of New South Wales' countryside. Our residency program welcomes international artists, designers, and makers to explore their practice within an inspiring landscape of ancient red gums, mountain vistas, and authentic rural community connections.
About Artist House
Artist House is a transformative creative residency where international artists, designers, and makers find inspiration within Australia's breathtaking countryside. Nestled on a historic working farm in New South Wales' Western District, we believe that authentic artistic growth flourishes when creators are immersed in nature, community, and the unhurried rhythms of rural life.
Our Creative Community
We welcome visual artists, designers, writers, photographers, composers, and interdisciplinary creators from around the world. Our intimate cohorts of 6-7 artists foster meaningful dialogue and collaboration while maintaining the space and solitude essential for deep creative work.
Our Mission & Values
We believe that art thrives when creators have time, space, and authentic connection to place and community. Artist House provides a sanctuary where artists can step away from urban distractions and reconnect with their practice in an environment that nurtures both personal growth and artistic innovation.
Our commitment extends beyond individual artistic development to fostering cultural exchange between international creators and local communities. We believe that art builds bridges, creates understanding, and enriches both visitors and residents through shared experiences and collaborative projects.
The Artist House Experience
Our program is designed for emerging and established artists seeking dedicated time to develop new work, explore innovative practices, or simply reconnect with their creative core in an inspiring natural environment.
Each residency is thoughtfully curated to balance solitude with community, offering both private studio time and opportunities for group critiques, skill-sharing workshops, and cultural excursions throughout the stunning Grampians region.
We provide comprehensive support including personalized mentorship, technical assistance, and connections to Australia's vibrant arts community, ensuring every artist leaves with new work, fresh perspectives, and lasting professional relationships.
The historic farm setting, with its 600-year-old red gums and panoramic mountain views, offers endless inspiration while our proximity to the Grampians National Park provides access to some of Australia's most spectacular natural landscapes.
Whether you're a painter seeking new light, a sculptor exploring organic forms, or a digital artist craving analog inspiration, Artist House provides the perfect environment to push creative boundaries and discover new directions in your practice.
