ANAT Synapse Fellowship :: Call for Applications Open
In 2024, ANAT will celebrate 20 years of the Synapse residency program by offering the ANAT Synapse Fellowship.
The ANAT Synapse Fellowship is a special, one-off fund to support an ANAT Synapse Alumnus to continue the trajectory of their interdisciplinary artistic practice.
The fund will support professional artists who have been a past recipient of an ANAT Synapse residency to undertake a sustained period of experimental, artistic research and/or development that will strengthen and extend their professional practice.
The successful fellow will receive a grant of $20,000 to support their practice.
ANAT Synapse Alumni are invited to apply to the fellowship for activities that directly relate to their arts practice, including:
- Experimentation, research and development

- Professional fees to creatives or professionals to undertake work directly relating to their arts practice (e.g. photographic or video documentation)

Background – ANAT Synapse residency program
ANAT Synapse is a residency program that involves Australian research organisations hosting Australian artists in residence to undertake a period of creative research and practice.
The program brings artists and researchers together in partnerships that generate new knowledge, ideas and processes beneficial beyond both fields. Synapse residencies lead to profound artistic and professional development for the participants, while also building a sustainable support base for interdisciplinary creative collaboration in Australia.
