The Burton Ceramics Residency
16 October 2025
Deadline: October 20, 2025
The Burton at Bideford is delighted to announce an open call for their 6th Ceramics Residency. Bringing contemporary art into conversation with their historic collections, this residency provides a unique opportunity for an artist in the early stages of their career to explore and develop their practice.
The Burton has one of the leading ceramics collections in the South West region, with a specialism in North Devon slipware within the RJ Lloyd Collection spanning over 300 years and 500 works. As they celebrate their 75th anniversary in 2026 the team are excited to invite an artist to look inward at The Burton’s ceramic collections, history and people; creating new work that reimagines the relevance of this work for the community now and in the future.
