Flexible access to a beautiful, professionally presented creative space — to rehearse, record, launch, present, or simply make the work.
Joy’s on the Avenue is a private creative salon and boutique venue in Brisbane, built to support professional and emerging artists with flexible access to an inspiring environment. The Artist in Residence program is the most direct way in.
It is, first and foremost, a practical program. A residency gives you a versatile, well-appointed room you can genuinely use to move your work forward — whatever stage that work is at, and whatever it happens to need.
Sometimes that means a place to rehearse. Sometimes it’s somewhere to record content, launch an album, host an intimate performance, present new work, or simply have uninterrupted time to think.
The residency exists to give artists access to a space that adapts to the different stages of a practice — flexible, professionally presented, and led by you rather than by us.

The space is adaptable.
You decide how to use it.
Studio time, rehearsal rooms, recording spaces and launch venues are usually booked separately, priced by the hour, and rarely beautiful. A residency at Joy’s gives you one considered space that can be all of those things — without the logistics of assembling them yourself.
Every residency looks a little different, because every project does. We provide the environment; you provide the direction.
A residency can be shaped around whatever your practice needs right now.
A professionally presented space, ready for serious work.
Professional and emerging artists across disciplines who need a space that can keep up with their practice.
Artists who’ve made work in the room. Step up to a portrait to find their music, their merch, or to request them for your event.
Step into the full collection of resident artists.
No fixed template. We’ll build the residency around your project, your timeline and how public you want it to be.
Focused access for a rehearsal, a recording session, a shoot or a single launch — in and out, fully set up.
Recurring access across days or weeks to develop a body of work, with the room evolving as the project does.
A tailored arrangement for larger projects, tour kick-offs, showcase series or anything that needs its own shape.
Straightforward and human. Tell us about the work and we’ll sort the rest.
