Salt Spring Arts Council Artists in Residence

Three artists have been chosen for the Salt Spring Arts Council artist in residence program.

This year's resident artists are Joyce Majiski, from Whitehorse, who is working on a multi-media installation titled Song of the Whale; painter Claudia Wilholt from Germany; and writer Julie Burtinshaw, who is working on her next book, Petit Treason: One Women's Journey to the Gallows.

The program is open to professionals working in in any genre or medium, at any stage of their careers. 

Submissions are juried based on artistic merit, available facilities and potential links to the West Coast island's community.  

Artists share their expertise through presentations, workshops and exhibits. For information, go to: ssartscouncil.com/artist-in-residence/residencies/.
