Are you Zero Waste Yukon’s next artist in residence?
December 7, 2022
This past summer, Zero Waste Yukon and Raven Recycling partnered to pilot an artist residency program in Raven Recycling’s depot. The program received great positive feedback, so we are accepting applications for the year 2023!
What we’re looking for:
Yukon artists who will use materials recycled at Raven to create art works that engage customers and staff in conversations about and in activities that demonstrate:
• bold ideas for systemic change,
• effective pathways to zero waste and circular economies,
• alternatives to our take-make-waste mentality,
• a call to action in the interest of caring for our planet, ecosystems and communities.
Find the full list of requirements in our application.
A maximum of 5 Yukon artists will be accepted into the program for the year 2023.
Deadline to submit: Monday, January 16, 2023
How to submit: Download and fill out our application form. Submit completed applications either by email to communications@ravenrecycling.org or in person to 100 Galena Rd., Whitehorse, Yukon.

This program is made possible with the support of City of Whitehorse’s Environmental Grant.
