Ground Rules is a residency retreat for artists, providing them with the opportunity to explore new ideas and ways of working in their medium, connect to their individual heritage and discover how scientific processes shape the natural world. Participants will stay overnight in oTENTiks in Chéticamp during the residency. The program also includes an exhibition component where participating artists will create new works based on their time in Cape Breton Highlands National Park. This exhibit will be on display at the Centre in 2020.

The deadline for applications is May 1, 2019.
