ON::VIEW Artist Residency

Savannah, GA, United States

ARTS Southeast is excited to invite you to apply to the ON::View Artist Residency! Located in the heart of Savannah’s Starland District at ARTS Southeast, the fully-funded ON::View Artist Residency provides a free, high visibility studio space, lodging, and $500 stipend for an artist or curator to complete a new project, continue an in-progress endeavor, or to conduct research. The studio’s large windows look out onto Bull Street, the district’s main thoroughfare, allowing the resident’s work to be on view to the community at all times. Visitors and passersby on the sidewalk witness the resident's process as it unfolds in real time, seeing all the steps involved from concept to final execution. Community events like lectures, workshops, and public art projects offer creative ways to interact with the public. ARTS Southeast’s international ON::View Artist Residency is the only one of its kind in Savannah and is proud to provide financial support, studio space, and living accommodations to creatives from around the globe working in all media.

Located just blocks away, the 5th Dimension Apartment is a cozy studio with a full kitchen and bath to comfortably house the resident for the duration of their stay. The 5th Dimension Apartment has a private entrance and garden with plenty of space to create, lounge and entertain. It is our hope that by providing lodging, we will accommodate a diverse range of creatives from far and wide.

Studios/Facilities Details

Located just off the lobby in ARTS Southeast, the Residency Studio is 12 x 12 feet with large street level, east facing windows, which allow the community to view the Residents’ work 24/7. Artists may work in any medium suitable for the space. The Residency Studio has open air flow into the lobby and gallery area which makes the following restrictions necessary:

  • No aerosol or other toxic/high-voc materials are allowed in the space.
  • No ongoing or repetitive loud noises, such as grinding.  Occasional use of hand and power tools IS allowed.

- The Residency Studio is climate controlled, but due to its proximity to the doors and the large windows it can be warmer/cooler than the rest of the space depending on outside temperature.

- Limited furnishings in the Residency Studio are available. Accepted applicants must provide their own materials and supplies.

- ARTS Southeast does not insure the property of the Resident.
