In 2009 FORM began the Midland Atelier Creative Residency program, which sees eminent creatives from a range of fields invited to take up long or short-term residencies at the Atelier. Residency packages are tailored to the needs of the visiting creatives and residencies can be for as little as week or as long as several months or more. Outcomes of previous residencies have included the creation of new bodies of artistic work, exhibition opportunities, commissions and network connections.
Midland Atelier is an inspiring precinct, set amongst 17 hectares of heritage industrial buildings. The Atelier is located at the gateway to Perth’s Swan Valley wine region, the arts, food and wine community of the Perth Hills and the pastoral Avon Valley. Midland is an historic area with strong multicultural roots and is connected to central Perth via easily-accessible public transport.
Creative Residents at Midland Atelier also have the opportunity to travel the beautiful and remote North Western region of Western Australia in creative camps and journeys facilitated by FORM.
