OPEN CALL #air

We’re excited to announce that The Bored Peach Club is launching its second call for artist residencies for 2025! We’re inviting artists from all disciplines to apply for a unique opportunity to dive into their creative projects within our vibrant community. As part of the residency, artists will submit a project proposal, commit to a minimum stay of two weeks, and engage with the community through workshops or exhibitions.

We’re all about lifting artists up, giving them a boost to reach new heights. Think of us as the ultimate cheerleaders for creativity. And hey, we’re not just about work. We’re also a chill hangout where artists can kick back, recharge, and cook up some mind-blowing masterpieces that speak to the soul.

Who is the residency for?
Anyone with a creative mind looking for a place to get inspired.

CALL CURRENTLY CLOSED>>

The Bored Peach Club residency places a strong emphasis on community connection and creative exchange. We believe that art flourishes when it’s shared, discussed, and experienced collectively. Resident artists are encouraged to engage with both the local community and fellow creatives through workshops, open studio events, and interactive exhibitions. These gatherings offer artists a chance to share their work, processes, and ideas, inviting meaningful conversations and insights from diverse perspectives.

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. Beyond that, the support from the residency staff was incredible—it’s an experience that can completely shift your perspective and push your art to a new level. If you’re looking for a space to grow and explore without limits, the BPC could be the perfect next step.

The BPC Residency in Xagħra, Gozo offered a deeply immersive and inspiring environment — a serene haven infused with Mediterranean spirit and rooted in a sense of place. Nestled in a quiet alley within walking distance of a tightly knit Gozitan community, the residency provided a space where creative practice could unfold with both focus and fluidity. Ritty and Pat were incredibly helpful. Surrounded by layers of heritage, seasonal rituals, and the rhythms of village life, the residency allowed for an intuitive dialogue between the artist and the environment. Local tradesmen, artisans, and residents offered warmth and generosity, enriching the experience with meaningful encounters and cultural insights. The proximity to UNESCO World Heritage sites, Michelin-recognised gastronomy, and untouched coastal landscapes further deepened the connection between nature, culture, and creation. 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. It was a place of grounding and regeneration, where the elemental stillness of Gozo supported artistic inquiry and reflection.
