The residency package will be offered to one photographer from the shortlist and receive the opportunity of a month long residency including workshop and studio space within Six Foot Gallery along with accommodation at Menzies Hotel in Glasgow and a month’s membership at Street Level Photoworks where the photographer can avail of top class photographic facilities during July.
