Residency Eligibility
Residency Experience Summary
Application Information
Since 1976, Sculpture Space has helped to support the careers and studio practice of over 650 artists from around the world. As desired, artists and arts professionals (including curators and writers) are invited for informal studio visits. The collaborative environment of the studio and the communal aspects of the residence help foster dialogue, the exchange of ideas, creative experimentation and both personal and professional connections. The local community is invited to Works in Progress reception during each cohort; other visits are arranged by appointment.
Artists are selected to the program by a panel of artists and professionals in the sculpting field. Applicants will be notified in March if accepted. Primary criteria for selection are based on the quality, originality and potential of each artist work and proposed project. We offer a $1000 stipend to offset travel and expenses. Dependent on funding, financial aid may be made available. Funded residencies should not be relied on and all accepted artists are encouraged to find individual grants and funding.
