Applications are open for the 2025 Early Career Canadian Urban Leaders (ECCUL) Artist-in-Residence! This year-long residency at the School of Cities, University of Toronto, offers emerging artists a $50,000 CAD stipend and the chance to engage in urban issues like civic engagement, climate change, and social justice

Proposals should articulate how your practice addresses key urban issues such as civic and community engagement, housing, climate change, social justice, migration, inequality and democracy. This year-long residency will give an artist who is in the first 10 years of their art career the opportunity to collaborate, research and create art that engages with the work we do at School of Cities. The residency will culminate in a final public exhibition highlighting the research/artwork created during the residency. Artists from a broad range of art practices are invited to apply.
