Atelier Circulaire organizes annual residencies in partnership with various printmaking centers, both in Canada and internationally. These residencies may take the form of exchange programs between organizations or result from special projects supported by dedicated funding. They are offered outside our regular residency and grant programs.

Whether reciprocal or one-way, these initiatives aim to provide artists with the opportunity to enrich their practice by exploring new creative contexts and fostering inspiring artistic encounters.

Since 2025, Atelier Circulaire has established a cross-residency project with the Gwangju Museum of Art in the Republic of Korea, which will lead to the hosting of two selected Korean artists.

In 2025, Atelier Circulaire will receive support from the Conseil des arts de Montréal to host an Indigenous artist in residence. This program aims to increase the visibility and representation of Indigenous arts in Montreal by fostering exchange, dialogue, and the recognition of Indigenous knowledge and protocols.

Since 2015, Atelier Circulaire has been organizing annual one-month exchange residencies in collaboration with Fyns Grafiske Værksted in Odense, Denmark.
