The program is open to artists who are engaged in the research or creation of work and is designed to provide participants with uninterrupted time to think, create and experiment in the diverse community at The Gibraltar Point Centre for the Arts. Participants receive accommodation, a private or semi-private work studio and all meals at no cost.

International artists are responsible for making all visa related arrangements and must provide proof of their own medical insurance coverage for the period of their stay at Gibraltar Point. Gibraltar Point Centre for the Arts is a unique facility operated by Toronto Artscape. The 30,000 square foot building provides permanent studio space to more than a dozen artists and a Retreat Centre which can be rented for a variety of functions. Gibraltar Point Centre inherited its site from The Island Public and Natural Science School. The Centre owes its name to its location marked by Toronto s oldest landmark - the Gibraltar Point Lighthouse, which was erected in 1808.
