The Living Arts Centre (LAC) in Mississauga is now accepting applications for our Fellowship Program. This Program seeks to support local, national and international emerging artists, who have graduated from a post-secondary institution within the past 2 years. Accepted Fellows will be those who demonstrate dynamic artistic promise.

The Program is designed to support Fellows in a collaborative environment as they begin their careers.

  • Train in exhibition installation practices
  • Foster a collaborative and supportive atmosphere
  • Promote interdisciplinary experimentation with other Fellows and LAC Residents
  • Provide networking and commission opportunities
  • Allow for creative freedom through self-directed residency

The LAC offers professionally equipped studios in the areas of:

  • Ceramics
  • Woodworking
  • Glass
  • Flame working
  • Painting and Drawing
  • Sculpture
  • Photography (analog and digital)
  • Textiles

Fellowships are awarded based on application review and studio availability. The LAC offers competitive and subsidized studio rental rates. Expenses are paid by artists.
