The Center for Contemporary Printmaking (CCP) Residency Program offers Artists-in-Residence the unique opportunity to live and work inside a dedicated studio: the Helen Frankenthaler Printmaking Cottage. Within this space artists can produce a body of work in a supportive atmosphere that fosters creative growth and development, for traditional as well as innovative printmaking techniques.

The intention of the residency is to offer artists one to two weeks of uninterrupted, 24/7 time and privacy in a well-equipped studio with onsite living accommodations. This residency has proven to be an ideal opportunity for experimentation and collaboration. Artists can add to their work practice, explore new mediums, create an edition, or otherwise advance their printmaking skills. CCP strives to advance outcomes from the residency that stimulate original and inventive work that the artist might not otherwise have attempted absent these amenities.

One of the goals of our residency programs, whether Professional Development or Self-funded, is engaging our local community in an exchange of ideas and techniques. Artists-in-residence will have the opportunity to conduct a studio talk or workshop for the Norwalk community and greater New York metropolitan area. CCP will work with the artist to schedule and promote the additional programming through various outreach methods, including social media, to ensure a broad audience. Residency session September - November, Residency fee 1500 US Dollar (USD) however there is GRANT/SCHOLARSHIP/OTHER FUNDING SUPPORT.

Noun ‘pa-ləm(p)-sest, pə-ˈlim(p)-: a very old document on which the original writing has been erased and replaced with new writing. Something that has changed over time and shows evidence of that change.

Palimpsesto is a project in constant mutation, in which artists are encouraged to superimpose their murals or interlace them with the previous ones, achieving a new awakening of what was already on the wall. More than an individual work, the murals express the superposition of many hands, residences and artists. These actions are considered a way to embrace and, at the same time, demystify the work of the other.

These residences are aimed to career or emerging visual artists, with a special interest in muralism and / or urban art. Groups of up to 2 members can apply together to work collaboratively. In addition, in these residences there is the possibility of working collectively collaborating with other residents or local artists, as well as carrying out additional projects in mural festivals or in public spaces in the City of Buenos Aires.

The Palimpsest Project is a mural painting residency conceived as a “work in progress”. Recovering palimpsest word original meaning, our terrace becomes a living organism in which the artists paint their murals by dialoguing, intervening or overlapping with the previous ones.

Mixit Print Studio is an open access professional printmaking studio owned and operated by Catherine Kernan, Jane Goldman, and Randy Garber. Although privately owned, the studio fosters a supportive and interactive community of printmakers/artists.
Mixit Hand Soap RobinZBolgerFounded in 1987, Mixit Print Studio occupies 1800 square feet on the ground floor of Mixit Studios Cooperative, an artist-owned live/work building, formerly the factory for Mixit Hand Soap.

The Drawing Year is a full-scholarship postgraduate-level course run by the Royal Drawing School in Shoreditch, London. The course offers up to thirty students the opportunity to focus on drawing from observation for one year. There are no tuition fees and all students receive a free studio space.

Every course offered at the School is taught at postgraduate-level by a distinguished faculty of over 75 practicing artists. Students have three end of year exhibitions and international residency and teaching opportunities after graduation.

Applicants will usually have completed a BA (Hons) degree in Fine Art or a related subject, but this is not essential. Applicants are expected to show a strong portfolio of work demonstrating a commitment to drawing and a level of artistic professionalism appropriate for study at postgraduate level.

Please, note:
As an independent school, we are not currently able to sponsor Student visas. Regrettably, we are therefore not able to consider applications from international and EU students who are not eligible for a UK visa, Graduate visa or don't already have Settled/Pre-Settled Status granted under the EU Settlement Scheme (EUSS).

The climate crisis is an urgent global concern. Self as Universe: Mending Our Collective Ecosystem Residencies at A Studio in the Woods invite artists to explore the connections within our collective ecosystems and use the power of imagination to heal the wounds in the relationship between ourselves and our communities. Southeast Louisiana’s land and inhabitants are continually scarred by the effects of environmental degradation. These injuries – the historical to the present – affect our bodies, families, communities, and cultures, as well as the land and its other creatures. We encourage artists to guide our collective response as the caretakers and caregivers to our universe while bringing wisdom, integrity, optimism, and even humor to intentional and timely projects seeking transformation for our species and planet.

The difference between 99% of artists who stay students forever and artists who exhibit their work is their approach, commitment as evidenced by their ability to build a body of work. This six-month master class is designed to help artists hone their vision in creating a cohesive body of work and articulate that vision to the world. The curriculum features recorded lectures on creativity, time, intention, flow as well as bi-monthly live sessions each month in a group setting. The Masterclass artists also gain access to Fireside Chats and live critiques Q & As with artists, curators, publishers, and other art professionals all in the service of helping them nurture their work and how they present it outwardly beyond the art itself. This group includes artists from all different kinds of media. During live sessions, artists share their works in progress, artist statements, websites, and media articulating their work. This 6-month Masterclass is designed to help artists hone their vision in creating a cohesive body in a group setting with other artists. In addition to developing their voice, artists are guided towards articulating it in a variety of mediums for a mass audience. The workshop focuses on four main aspects of professional art development: I. STUDIO PRACTICE Over the course of 6 months, accepted artists work towards the beginning and refining a series of works centered around a topic, style, and idea of their choosing. The bi-monthly virtual group sessions allow students to pitch and bounce ideas, as well as share groupings of works as they evolve. II. CURRICULUM: LECTURES AND STUDIO VISITS The Masterclass uses a series of prompts, videos, and assignments designed to guide artists in developing their work in their own voice. Using excerpts from studio visits with many well-known artists (including Lari Pittman, Rosson Crow, Rebecca Campbell, Annie Lapin, Chris Trueman, Enrique Martinez Celaya, and more), participating artists expand their own vocabulary of how to arrive at new ideas. III. PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT Creating a body of work also requires attention to how it is communicated to future collectors, gallerists, museum directors, and curators. As the work starts to develop, the curriculum and assignments guide artists in communicating what their work is about through writing, a catalog, the artist’s digital portrait (website, social etc) and film. IV. COMMUNITY & CRITIQUES During live sessions, fireside chats, and unique live events, curators, artists, and writers offer invaluable insight into participating artists’ work. All participating artists have access to a private positive and exclusively art-based online community where they can share work and news about their career and discuss exhibitions, articles, studio visits, and anything else. Requirements and submission: Please submit your application via Callforentry.org. Once the interview process is complete, applicants will be informed whether or not they have been accepted into the workshop. As this class is virtual, participants will need internet access for the course content and Zoom for class meetings. Tuition does not cover art supplies, studio space, or any other ancillary materials for the course.

Whitefish Bay, on the Door Peninsula in Wisconsin, has long been a creative haven for artists who are an important part of the local community and bring the process of creating art into daily life. Inspired by the history of the Dome House and the vibrant artistic community in Door County, the Al & Mickey Quinlan Residency gives an artist the opportunity to create work in a unique environment providing inspiration and solitude.

Rooted in VSW’s mission to provide support to experimental photo, film and media art artists, the goal of the Project Space Residency is to provide time, space, and resources to artists so they can create.

The 4 week residencies are open to artists at any stage of their career and take place at VSW in Rochester, NY. Project Space Residents receive 24/7 access to a private studio, digital printing equipment and an analog darkroom. They also receive a stipend of $1000, plus $250 for supplies, and a $500 travel budget for those traveling from outside the Rochester region.

We provide accessible housing for national/international artists in an apartment within walking distance to VSW.

The Canal Arts nonprofit is managing creation of a mural, Summer 2024, on this building, now under construction, being converted from offices to 44 units of permanent housing for homeless in Marin County by nonprofit Eden Housing.

This prominent building is considered the gateway to San Rafael’s Canal district, a community of ~12,000 mostly Latino immigrants, in the heart of Marin County. The theme of the project is the security of “Home”, with reference to the cultures of the Canal. Artists selected for the project will be expected to engage with representatives of the community, from concept to execution. This mural joins and complements a previous mural by The Canal Arts, Bienvenidos al Canal, for the building, which will be relocated from the west elevation to the south elevation.

Our projects are community-engaged. The Canal Arts conducts art training and practice with Canal families and will select 2-3 qualified persons from the community, paid by The Canal Arts, to work with, directed by, and learn from the selected artist(s). Artist selection will be by The Canal Arts' jury.The Canal Arts will create a video documentary of the project, made available to selected artist(s).

Could dreams and nightmares be the potent driving force behind our creative processes, the mysterious catalysts igniting the flame of artistic inspiration?

A significant number of artists affirm this belief wholeheartedly.

Some find their deepest inspirations enveloped in the essence of dreams, immersing themselves in a blissful trance of creation. This state transcends mere aspiration, becoming a surreal canvas where possibilities bloom endlessly, a place where the mind wanders, seeking the sublime, the ethereal, fostering an insatiable quest to reach heights previously unimagined, somehow, somewhere.

On the flip side, many others journey through the chilling domains of nightmares, a voyage marked by relentless internal conflicts and cold sweats that pierce the stillness of the night.

These artists find themselves wrestling with the darker fragments of their psyche, exploring into corners where fears manifest and insecurities gnaw persistently. It's a place where conflict brews, giving birth to creations steeped in raw, unfiltered emotion, art that doesn't shy away from exposing the tumultuous storms raging within. It serves as both an exploration and an exorcism of the deep-seated darkness that resides in the corners of the human spirit. Here, the beauty arises from the conflict, the chaos, offering a catharsis that is both profound and unsettling.

“I know, I’ve been there, I am still.”

This exhibition aims to unearth the profound connections between the subconscious dream world and the pulsating, sometimes harrowing heartbeat of artistic creation, offering a sanctuary for reflection, resonance, and perhaps, revelation.

With support from the California Arts Council, Blue Line Arts is hosting a variety group show of LGBTQIA+ visual artists. Addressing a community-identified need for increased representation, understanding, and inclusion, the exhibitions and an accompanying series of intergenerational arts programs will elevate LGBTQIA+ voices in Placer County and the surrounding region.

This will provide exhibition opportunities for roughly 50 artists and educate the public regarding the broad spectrum of diversity of lived experiences that exists within the LGBTQ community.

During an opening reception for the exhibition, local LGBTQ support organizations will be invited to table in the gallery, raising visibility for local support services and connecting LGBTQ individuals with a broader community.

All elements of the program will be provided free of charge to participants and audiences. Blue Line Arts will provide resources and information about local LGBTQ support services, helplines, and community groups throughout the duration of the show and workshops.

SOMA Summer is an intensive three-week academic program in Mexico for artistic inquiry that welcomes a cohort of international artists, curators, critics, and art historians interested in collaborative pedagogical models. Each SOMA Summer is organized around a different theme that provides a compelling conceptual framework for research and creative work.

In its 2024 edition, SOMA Summer will be structured after Argentinean decolonial philosopher Enrique Dussel's subject-subject relation categories to deal with entanglement as our object of study.
In its 2024 edition, and with the academic support of Taniel Morales (artist, Mexico City), Vivian Abenshushan (artist, Mexico City), and Yoshua Okón (artist, Mexico City), along with a group of renowned Mexican and international artists and curators.

Entanglements

And what if skin was the center of our body and not its limit?

We are plural beings, entities constituted as part of an intricate biological-cultural-somatic system. The world we live in was here before we arrived. Each object, each concept, each event already had a history of its own. The labor involved in their becoming is not ours to claim. We are nothing but bonds, relations to other people; to plants and animals; to microorganisms; to the biosphere as a whole. Those bonds are the seeds that allow our thoughts, thoughts, and feelings to flourish. Complex causal chains bind us to the planet as a whole. Individual creation is a fiction: nothing is invented from scratch. All creations are collective. Gutenberg's printing press would have been impossible without Chinese technologies, without wine presses, without migrations, without minerals and grapevines. How can we live and create under that assumption?

Led by Taniel Morales (artist, Mexico City), Vivian Abenshushan (artist, Mexico City), and Yoshua Okón (artist, Mexico City), SOMA Summer 2024 will follow the methods of Paulo Freire's critical pedagogy. In this edition, participants will acquire and share knowledge through facilitated workshops and participatory sessions. This pedagogical approach is meant to counter the prevailing individualism and reductionist worldviews. Centering the program on different intersections between individuals, authorship, disciplines, knowledge, territories, and worldviews will enable the creation of exquisite irreplaceable hybrids.

To kick off our 200th anniversary celebration, we’re hosting The Brooklyn Artists Exhibition, an exhilarating major group show that will illuminate the unparalleled breadth and depth of talent in our borough.

Opening October 4, 2024, and filling the Museum’s Great Hall, The Brooklyn Artists Exhibition will feature artworks in all mediums, spotlighting artists who have lived or worked in Brooklyn during the last five years (2019–24). Prepare to be dazzled: the exhibition will bring together an unprecedented number of Brooklyn artists, surpassing any previous showcase in the Museum's history.

The Bemis residency is a process-based experience–residents have the ability to research, experiment, and explore free from expectations. Bemis residents enjoy generous sized, private live/work studios and have 24-hour access to extensive installation and production spaces; the Okada Sculpture & Ceramics Facility, a 9,000 square foot industrial workshop used for large-scale sculpture fabrication; and a Sound Studio for rehearsing and recording.

Selected U.S.-based artists-in-residence receive a $2,000 USD monthly stipend, a $750 USD travel stipend, a $7,000 USD materials budget, and a $1,000 USD shipping budget to cover the transportation of items or equipment to and from the residency. Due to the limitations of B2 visas (touring/visiting), international artists-in-residence are eligible to receive reimbursement of qualified expenses, such as airfare, ground transportation, and meals.

Submit your ceramic work today for a chance to win the Ceramics Heritage Award!

In 1942, the Zanesville Art Institute held the ­first annual "May Show of Arts and Crafts" for artists in and around Zanesville. More than seven decades later, this annual exhibition continues at the Zanesville Museum of Art as the "Ohio Annual Exhibition." This highly anticipated exhibition, the eligibility for which has been expanded statewide, recognizes the extraordinary ­fine art and fine craft created in the Buckeye State and celebrates the museum’s commitment to discovering, encouraging, and recognizing Ohio’s finest artists and artisans.

Each year we look forward to presenting a stylistically and thematically diverse exhibition that captures the essence of Ohio’s vibrant visual arts scene. The people, places, and customs found in each unique region of Ohio inspire its artists, and the ZMA is in the fortunate position of recognizing and fostering this creativity.

In its 78th year, this competitive, juried exhibition welcomes submissions from all Ohio artists, in all stages of their career. In 2022, over four hundred artists vied for the opportunity to exhibit their work at the museum and earn the title Best in Show. The ZMA is excited to be able to host this exhibition onsite for the first time in three years!

The opportunity is open to individual artists and/or artists collective/ groups. They will work with the Wonderseekers team to design, plan, and facilitate a series of creative workshops to guide children, including our Young Design Panel through this process over the 9-month development phase. They will encourage children to express themselves through art, capturing their creative and imaginative responses to local environmental themes.

Bethany Arts Community (BAC) offers residencies to emerging and established artists for the development of both new works and works-in-progress. BAC welcomes artists working across any discipline and medium, including visual artists, sculptors, writers, playwrights, choreographers, musicians, composers, performance artists, filmmakers, and more to our Fall Multidisciplinary Residency. Any and all artistic mediums are encouraged to apply. Enjoy an environment where artists from different disciplines and walks of life can work in community and near each other, creating opportunities for generative collaboration and cross-pollination.

Residents will be surrounded by uninhibited creativity during their time at BAC, in the form of other Multidisciplinary Residents, local studio artists, BAC staff and board members, those presenting programs on campus, and more!

A unique component of residencies at BAC is Community Programming. As part of a residency, we ask each artist to develop and facilitate a Community Program related to their residency plan. This part of the residency is an opportunity for artists to engage with the local community in Ossining and Westchester County, and for the local community to engage with artists through their work.

The Fall Multidisciplinary Residency runs for two sessions, September 23 to October 7 and October 18 to November 4, each with its own cohort. Artists are provided room & board, a private studio conducive to artists’ medium and/or project, 3 basic meals a day*, and a $225 stipend per week upon completion of the residency. Artist is responsible for transportation to and from BAC and any supplies or materials needed for their practice. We ask that you only apply if you can stay for the entire length of this residency.

We are currently unable to accommodate severe allergies (celiac's disease, tree nut allergy, peanut allergy, etc.) and other commonly-used ingredient allergies (garlic, allium allergy, etc).
