Artscape is offering a residency program for artists on Toronto Island, Canada. The submission deadline is February 21st, and the program runs from June 1 to June 30. From their website:

The Gibraltar Point Residency transcends political, aesthetic and geographic boundaries, welcomes diversity and provides a spawning ground for unique cultural alliances. The program is open to Canadian and international artists who are engaged in the research, development or creation of work. Emerging, mid-career and established professional artists are invited to apply. Participants in the residency program receive accommodation, a private work studio and all meals at no cost. Travel and material costs are the responsibility of participating artists.

NOTE: This program accepts all kinds of artists, including musicians and writers; I even saw a costume designer in their list of alumni. It looks like a good opportunity to work alongside creative people dealing with a wide variety of media.
