The Hospital Club’s Philanthropic Department opens its call for applications for the second year of the Creatives in Residence Programme.

Creatives in Residence (CIR) is a cross-disciplinary initiative. Over the course of a year, we help the Residents develop their current projects, give them access to our studios and facilities, help build their business confidence and expand their networks.

The Residents also get access to a Guidance Group, made up of Club members who specialise in everything from design, film, music and art to marketing, PR, finance and law. The programme is also a platform to collaborate and share knowledge with creatives from other disciplines.

Creatives at the beginning of their chosen careers are selected with the help of a panel of industry experts. Applications are open to a wide range of talent including classical musicians (2008/ 2009 classical artist is: Alex Nikiporenko, composer and winner of the Guardian Young Composers Prize and BBC Proms Competition); from FILM, and MUSIC to FASHION, THEATER, GRAPHIC DESIGNER, VISUAL AND PERFORMANCE ARTS.

All applicants should have at least 2 years experience in their field.
