In October 2019 Findhorn Bay Arts was awarded Open Funding from Creative Scotland to support a new artist in residency project for the Forres area called Creative Work Shop.
The 12 month programme of interconnected arts projects and multi-art residencies responded to themes of place and regeneration offering space for reflection, connection and exploration through artist led conversation.
The programme coincided with and was compelled to respond to the 2020-21 Covid-19 pandemic.
Artists Caroline Inckle, David Sherry, and duo Robbie Coleman & Jo Hodges each took up a residency between February and October 2020.
