The 2008 Programme
Cove Park's 2008 programme began in April and continues until November.
This is our most comprehensive programme to date, bringing together over
fifty national and international artists working in a wide variety of art
forms and at all stages in their careers. We offer up to ten residencies
at any one time and these residencies may last from one week to six months.
Artists are given the time, space and freedom to concentrate on the development
of their work. Cove Park provides a supportive context in which artists can devise
new projects, experiment and engage with artists working in different fields or
with different approaches to their practice.
Cove Park is happy to support and facilitate the production of specific projects
during residencies and, equally, to ensure that those artists who wish to develop
new ideas without the constraints of the completion of a final piece of work are
free to do so. The opportunity for individual research and development is
enhanced through the interaction and discussion that takes place between the
artists on residency. This is facilitated through a series of informal events,
artists talks and presentations.
