Not just a residency* It’s an experience.

An artist residency in Gozo, Malta. Two artists at a time. A stone house in Xagħra. Two, three or four weeks.

Your time here.

Art flourishes when it's shared. So we make sure you share it. Run a workshop, host an open studio, give a talk, or find your own way into the village. Up to you.

The house is quiet on purpose. Two artists at a time, no distractions, room to think and make. What you do with the time is yours.

There's an atelier on site, sometimes available for an end-of-residency presentation, if that feels right.

2026 call is open. Come make something.

Where you live.

A traditional farmhouse on a hill in Xagħra. Stone walls, wooden beams, a pool, and a very long table where everyone ends up at dinner.

You get a private room and your own bathroom. Two artists share the house at a time, so there's space to be alone and company when you want it.

Downstairs is the atelier, a small exhibition space with its own character. Mornings can go to the courtyard. The village bakery, temples older than the pyramids and a good swim are all close by.

In their words.

“It's a great location, beautiful building and context. Organisation was smooth with a complete freedom to create. Loved it all!”

Anna Horvath

“Being a resident of the BPC was one of the most rewarding experiences of my career. It gave me the chance to dive into my work without the usual daily distractions and really live in a creative flow.”

Jessica DeMers

“They should definitely take the opportunity to create in such a beautiful property in a beautiful village in the most enchanted island on earth.”

Adrian Abela

“A serene haven infused with Mediterranean spirit and rooted in a sense of place. More than just a physical space, the BPC Residency became a conceptual retreat, a kind of contemporary hermitage, where ideas could simmer, transform, and emerge in their own time.”

Victor Agius
