Group Residency is a special time at SSW. It offers artists dedicated space and support for the development of their practice, through a series of inductions and intros to our facilities including ceramics, metal fabrication, blacksmithing and stonework. This is coupled with social spaces to support artists coming together for sauna, artists sharings, film nights, meals and walks in our rural site in north-east Scotland.

2026 Group Residencies will take place on the following dates in 2026:

  • Group Residency 1: 29 June – 24 July 2026
  • Group Residency 2: 3 August – 28 August 2026
  • Group Residency 3: 21 September – 16 October 2026

Group Residency at SSW is experimental, collective and supported by SSW’s skilled team.
