KATE DAVIES RESIDENCY COTTAGE OPENS AT ROGUE STUDIOS
Rogue is excited to announce the opening of the Kate Davies Residency Cottage. Named after Manchester artist and Rogue benefactor Kate Davies, the cottage is intended as a resource for grass roots arts organisations in the north west, providing overnight accommodation for artists and performers visiting or working in the region. Originally in use by the caretaker at the former Varna Street school, the cottage is a three bedroom house sleeping up to 4 people and integrated into the Rogue Artists’ Studios site in Higher Openshaw, east Manchester.
The ‘Caretaker’s Cottage’ will enable Manchester based creatives to participate in exchange schemes with artist-led organisations throughout the UK and abroad. Rogue is also delighted to be working with partner organisations to facilitate opportunities for artists from further afield to work for extended periods in Manchester, and to contribute to the city’s diverse and flourishing cultural offer. In conjunction with studio and exhibiting space at Rogue, the Cottage offers unlimited potential for exciting and innovative new approaches to international collaboration in the arts.
