Craft Department at Harbourfront Centre
Artist-in-Residence (A-i-R) Programme
If you have recently graduated from a recognized craft, design or art college/university and are interested in pursuing a full-time career in craft, you should consider an artists residency in the Craft Studio.
The Craft Studio residency programme acts as a stepping stone between school and a professional career. It is designed to assist and promote emerging, professional craftspeople by providing time, facilities, professional development programmes and resources to create and develop work.
Full-time openings in Hot-glass, Metal/Jewellery, Ceramics and Textiles. Summer openings in Metal, Textiles and Glass when space permits.
Craft Courses
Taught by the Craft Studio artists-in-residence, these beginner courses for adults are an excellent creative challenge. Courses include Ceramics, Glass Blowing, Basic Jewellery Creation and Textiles.
Craft Lectures & Events
Lectures, professional seminars and workshops with prominent Canadian and international artists on a variety of craft-related topics are offered throughout the year. For more information, call 416.973.4963 or email us.
