Pottery Farm Gallery is a creative retreat offering short residencies for writers, filmmakers, visual artists, designers, photographers, musicians, and other creators. It’s a quiet and distraction-free space where you can focus on your projects and explore new ideas at your own pace.
WHERE ARE WE?
We’re located in the heart of the Gers region, on the northeastern edge of Gascony, just 40 minutes from the lively city of Toulouse. Set on a hill surrounded by nature with stunning views of the Pyrenees, our space is tucked away from main roads, providing the perfect environment for inspiration and focus.
Duration of residency
Residencies last 2 weeks (14 days, 13 nights) This open call is for: MAy (06- 19) Check out our link number 1 to see the other dates available this year.
Accommodation
The large farmhouse is set on a hillside with 360° views of rolling hills and the entire Pyrenées mountain range. We host up to four residents at a time and offer four different options for working and sleeping in the main house, along with a separate communal and private space for work. Laura’s Room: This space is designed for living and creating in absolute comfort. With a mezzanine layout, you can sleep on the first level and work comfortably on the second. It features a spacious wardrobe for your clothes and materials, as well as a beautiful view of the surrounding fields and natural landscape. ’ Room: Generously proportioned, this room places the bedroom on the first level and the workspace on the mezzanine, allowing you to easily separate rest from inspiration. Its large windows flood the room with natural light, offering stunning views of snow-capped mountains on a good day. Benjie’s Room: Known as our “Light Room,” boasts double windows with views of both the Pyrenees and the fields. A desk provides a peaceful workspace perfect for any artist, though we feel it’s especially ideal for writers. Camille’s Room: While it doesn’t have a mezzanine, it offers generous space with a bed, a large desk for tranquil work, a wardrobe, and a chest of drawers. This bright room overlooks the fields, the Pyrenees, and a charming view of our trees and wood logs. We have two showers, one on the second floor and another on the first floor, and separately, you will also have two toilets, one on the second floor (which is in the bathroom with the shower) and one on the first floor (which is separate from the shower).
