The Soup residency programme awards emerging artists in the West Midlands the opportunity to work in the culturally thriving heart of Birmingham, Digbeth.
The residency offers artists time and space to develop projects, as well as having the opportunity to integrate themselves into the local artistic community. The residency is intended for emerging artists who will benefit by creating work amongst other artists of varying disciplines and specialisms.
Supported by Arts Council England.
