Thoor Ballylee, a Hiberno-Norman tower nestled on a river bank in Ballylee, near Gort in County Galway in Ireland, is a place of history, poetry, and idyllic beauty. 

The residency's focus this year will be on visual arts, textiles, embroidery and printing. Artists working in any of these areas are encouraged to apply.

The artist will have access to The Studio at Thoor Ballylee where they can work during their residency. The Studio will be available during opening hours of Thoor Ballylee, from 10am to 5pm every day.

During the residency, the artist will engage with local artists in their genre at agreed times. They will also be expected to engage with the wider public by offering a workshop and/or holding a demonstration/exhibition of their work.

For the two-week residency, the successful candidate will receive accommodation and a daily stipend of €80.
