We’re super excited to announce that in 2026 we’re starting a residency program.

We’re keen to see more circus works being made by the range of circus practitioners we have in our vibrant community. That means artists having access to space, time and support to make works in development.

There will be three residencies in 2026 and each will have a wee relaxed showing of the work at the end. For more information visit https://www.thedustpalace.co.nz/residency - link in linktree
