Méduse

Residencies

Participating organizations

Artists run centers in Méduse offer multiple residencies all year long according to their disciplines. Artists are then housed in Méduse, but it is the host center that take care of the artistic and financial aspects of the residencies. For more informations, you can consult the website of each organizations of Méduse to find out about upcoming open calls. You can also subscribe to our newsletter (in French only). Artists run centers chose their artist independently and Méduse has no power in these decisions. If you have any questions about a residency, please contact the responsible organization directly.

The studio-apartment

Méduse's studio-apartment is a 750-square feet (about 70 m2) open housing and working space equipped with a double bed, bathroom, toilet, storage, kichenette, work area and Internet connection. Specifically dedicated to international residencies, it is accessible only by the guest artist. Located on the 5th floor of the building, it offers an exceptional view on Downtown Québec City and the surrounding mountains, an environment propitious for research and creation projects. Méduse also puts a bicycle at the disposal of the guest artist.
