Join us for an exciting opportunity to create a body of work while engaging with Toronto's creative community!
OCAD University’s International Summer Art & Design Residency is a three-week hands-on studio experience dedicated to emerging artists and designers who want to visit and make art in Toronto, Canada.
Situated at our campus in downtown Toronto, you are invited to fully immerse yourself in the making of a new series of art or design work for your portfolio under the guidance of OCAD U faculty.
This residency program will closely resemble the first-year OCAD U experience with studio visits, critiques and projects that help you develop and improve your ideas through full-day studio classes. By the end of this program, you will come away with new work that will showcase your concepts, skills and techniques for post-secondary admissions inspired by your time in Toronto!
Applicants to this program must have completed Grade 10 and be 16 years or older.
The residency will run from Monday, July 7th, to Friday, July 25th, 2025.
The application will open in February. Sign up today to be notified as soon as registration opens.
