The curatorial residency with Delfina Foundation and Metroland Cultures is a twelve-week residency in London for emerging/ mid-career New Zealand curators, taking place from 3 April to 23 June 2023. The residency is fully funded including travel costs, accommodation and a daily stipend.

About the residency
The residency will offer opportunities to gain training, skills and experience, while embedded in the curatorial workings of Metroland Cultures for 3 days/week. Metroland Cultures’ programme sits at the intersection of art and community, testing and pioneering new approaches that centre partnerships, strategies and approaches for community and artist collaboration.
