The Aunte Indigenous Residency

The Aunte Indigenous Residency supports artists and writers whose practices embody contemporary and traditional forms of artistic expression located in Interior BC. We are committed to strengthening the Indigenous art sector by supporting artists in capacity building and expanding their skills and knowledge within their practices to build strong authenticity integrity and community. Through a variety of initiatives such as workshops training programs mentorship opportunities and collaborative projects we provide artists with the resources and support they need to develop their craft and enhance their professional skills. Whether it's mastering traditional techniques exploring new mediums or honing entrepreneurial skills we strive to empower artists to reach their fullest potential. Furthermore we believe in the importance of fostering a sense of community and collaboration among Indigenous artists. By creating spaces for artists to connect share experiences and learn from one another we cultivate a supportive ecosystem where collective knowledge and creativity can flourish.
