Launched in the spring of 2025, the BAO Studio Program provides free dedicated art studios to Brampton-based artists, collectives and arts & culture organizations. Running from April to July in the BAO office in Downtown Brampton, selected participants are not only provided their own free studio space but receive $1000 stipend each to cover the costs of materials and other related purchases.

Each self-directed artist residency can be in any artistic discipline, including writing, visual arts, performing arts, music and more.

In 2025 we are thrilled to welcome the following Brampton artists and creatives into the program:
