The Farm Margaret River Residency
Deadline: June 2nd, 2025
Located on an ancient, ever-changing piece of land that inspires awe and artistry, The Farm Margaret River offers immersion in the sublime. It is both a working rural property and a home to artist studios — a place to make, explore, examine and restore.

With a specific focus on site-responsive projects, the Residency provides an immersive space for creative inquiry, fostering connections between the artist(s), environment, and community.

A $7,500 residency fee
Self-contained studio accommodation
Opportunities for mentorship and connections with major arts organizations
Project support and initial travel expenses to the property
Access to a gallery space, workshop, working farm, and natural bushland, fostering a rich and inspiring creative environment
