Applications are now open for The Guildhouse Fellowship – Enhanced.

The Guildhouse Fellowship is an 18-month opportunity for a South Australian mid-career visual artist, craft practitioner or designer to undertake research, development and the creation of new work culminating in a presentation outcome at the Art Gallery of South Australia (AGSA).

The latest iteration extends the Fellowship from a 12-month to an 18-month engagement and increases the artist’s fee from $35,000 to $50,000, embedding best practice by paying superannuation to the artist.

The Fellowship includes:

  • An artist fee of $50,000 paid directly to the artist
  • Payment of 12% superannuation
  • Professional documentation
  • A presentation at AGSA, planned in conjunction with the artist, AGSA and Guildhouse

The Guildhouse Fellowship is unique in Australia and creates an extraordinary opportunity to extend artistic practice, grow industry recognition and expand professional horizons. To date, the program has supported six outstanding South Australian visual artists to pursue sustainable careers, contributing to a robust and vibrant South Australian arts sector.

The Guildhouse Fellowship is generously supported by the James and Diana Ramsay Foundation and is presented in partnership with the Art Gallery of South Australia.
