THROUGH OUR REGIONALLY BASED programs, PUNCTUM SUPPORTS ARTISTS TO TEST, DEVELOP AND PRESENT NEW WORK

Since 2008, Punctum has fearlessly hosted collaborative and culturally safe residency spaces for artists working at the intersection of contemporary artforms. 

We help artists take creative risks and forge their artistic practice in communities, for audiences, and with partners. 

Our residencies promote practice led enquiry in local, national and international regional settings.

We develop safe settings so artists can push the boundaries of their practice.

 We introduce artists to diverse regional communities and audiences opening the way for artists to excel in local and global arenas.

We work nationally as a trusted partner by those seeking to extend our hosting and collaborative approach to their artists and communities.
