Established in 1996, the International Artist in Residence programme hosts artists, with a truly international reputation, in Guernsey. Grounded in education and part of the Guernsey College of Further Education, it aims to provide a high profile platform for art and design. The programme’s various initiatives, supported by HSBC Private Bank and the Guernsey Arts Commission, address the idea of how creativity and creative projects can contribute to the economy while enriching the texture and quality of island life.

Currently the International Artist in Residence Programme is looking to ‘re-invent’ the ‘traditional’ residence programme now that the Guernsey College of Further Education, School of Art and Design is now comfortably relocated at the Delancey Campus ,while simultaneously looking to place artists in the public domain through a new initiative called Art and Islands.
