Alaska AIR - Bunnell Street Arts Center Artist in Residence

Homer, AK, United States

Bunnell Street Arts Center's "Alaska AIR" Artist-in-Residency program seeks international, US and Alaska artists looking to create new work and deeply engage Bunnell’s community. 

Bunnell seeks artists to strengthen the social, physical and economic fabric of Homer through the arts by addressing pertinent themes. These may include accessibility, inclusion, decolonization, sustainability, skills sharing and exchange, enhancing community well being, joy, or artistic strategies to build connection within communities. 

Mediums include, but are not limited to, visual, literary and performing arts, social and civic practice, ephemeral art, moving image, movement, music composition and performance. 

Alaska AIR residencies are generally scheduled for one month, October - April. The program provides a $2000 artist stipend, travel, lodging, and studio/gallery space. One to four Alaska AIR residencies are awarded annually, as Bunnell’s funding and scheduling permit.

RADicle

Boyne City, MI, United States

RADicle is The Croft Residency's collaborative residency with RAD Fest in Kalamazoo, MI. The residency includes a fall residency at The Croft, usually in September, and a performance opportunity the following spring as a featured artist at RAD Fest in Kalamazoo, in early March. RADicle is one of the awarded residencies that The Croft hosts. Each residency is for a movement artist and their collaborators. The Croft can host up to 4 artist/collaborators as a part of each residency. The RADicle residents will have access to the rehearsal spaces at The Croft Residency and studio space in a Petoskey, a small town close to the residency. While in residence, the artists are required to give a gift to the land everyday, to leave a gift for the next residents, and to engage with local community through an engagement that supports their creative practice. The RADicle residency length is 1-2 weeks. The specific length of the residency, within this frame, is up the artists. Each collaborator will receive a $575 stipend for their time. Artists will be reimbursed for travel costs up to $500.

The Croft Residency is a small residency on the hill facing South located in Horton Bay Michigan. The residency is on a 20 acre parcel of land on a dead end street. The residency overlooks Lake Charlevoix. Our main studio space is a large outdoor deck for dancing. We also have access to the communities' old one room schoolhouse, which is just down the hill.

We support movement based creatives. Choreographers/companies are able to apply with collaborators of different mediums for creative residencies. On average we host groups of up to 4 dancers for creative residencies. The residencies we host are generally either one or two weeks. The stipend amount that we offer to our residents is the same regardless of residency length. We offer stipends of $575 per artist and travel reimbursement of up to $500 per artist. 

We require the artists to give a gift to the land/engage in intentional relationship with the land everyday as a part of their process. Artists also leave a gift for the next resident. We ask artists to engage with the public. We work with the artists to find the engagement that makes the most sense for their process.

Elizabeth Murray Artist Residency by Collar Works

Granville, NY, United States

In 2017, the Murray- Holman family partnered with Collar Works to design a summer residency program for visual artists, with unique opportunities for individuals and families. Dedicated to supporting the legacy of Elizabeth Murray, Collar Works believes there is a kindred connection between its mission and what Murray’s story symbolizes to emerging artists, to those who are artists as well as parents, and to individuals who overcome adversity to achieve their vision.



The no-cost to attend, fully supported summer residency program is designed to accommodate 5-7 artists in residence per week, including onsite staff members. Artists are provided 24- hour access to semi-private studios, artist stipends, private bedroom accommodations, and shared bathroom facilities. Daily dinners are prepared by a chef-in-residence and served in a communal atmosphere to foster dialogue between residents. Breakfast and lunches will be provided. Artists will have the time and space to work in their studios to develop new works, with the opportunity to share in conversation with peers, meet with visiting curators (COVID permitting), and engage with the surrounding art communities.

Additional Accessibility Information

Our goal is to create a residency program that responds to the critical needs of emerging artists and artists as parents, while striving to build a program that reflects the rich cultural environment of today through an active commitment to diversity, equity, accessibility, and inclusion.

Since its inception, creating an environment that stands out as a safe space for creative risk taking, personal growth, and respite has been a core goal of the Elizabeth Murray Artist Residency.

Elizabeth Murray believed that each person deserves an opportunity to make their art and for their art to be visible on equal platforms. With that in mind our goal is to provide space and access for all, regardless of differences of race, age, color, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, religion, national origin, migratory status, disability/abilities, political affiliation, veteran status and/or socioeconomic background.

Accessibility: The site is an historic barn and house property. It is our long term plan to build accessible studios and living spaces, and make the general property accessible. Unfortunately the property is not currently ADA accessible year-round, but we will work diligently with individuals on a case-by-case basis to best accommodate your needs. Please contact us to discuss your needs.

How much of the residency experience can artists with limited mobility participate?

While the historic house and barn facilities are wheelchair inaccessible, residents with limited mobility can still fully participate. There is one bedroom in the house that is located on the first floor, reducing the stair use. Residents have worked in the house, the porch, grounds, or the first floor of the barn (dependent on medium). The short but unpaved path from the house to the barn can be driven with your vehicle. We will work with individuals on a case-by-case basis to best accommodate your needs.

Please briefly describe the facilities and areas of the campus that are NOT accessible.

The house has four doors for entry, all with stairs leading up to the doorways and porches. The inside of the historic house has small doorways and all bedrooms with the exception of one, are located upstairs.The path to the barn studios is partially unpaved and most entrances to the barn have stairs. The studios in the barn are located in the loft space.

STUDIO FACILITIES + BARN

  • The Elizabeth Murray Studio – communal shared space for talks, critiques.

  • 6 semi-private studios in upper barn loft overlooking Elizabeth Murray’s studio. Accessed by a staircase, the space includes 6 semi-private studio spaces in a communal atmosphere (approximately 12’x18’ with 3.5 white walls (drywall) for mounting, open doorway with curtain/screen, open ceiling to the cathedral-like barn ceiling, lighting, electricity, 1 table, chair(s), fan, easel. There is NO wireless internet or Air Conditioning in the barn. It is an old barn in a rural setting, and although we try our best to keep the temperature and wildlife at bay, there may be times where bugs, birds, bats, other wildlife are present and we encourage them to relocate outdoors. There also may be times where the studios get a little warm mid-day, and we encourage a pool break or rest. We do our absolute best, but also go by the mottos ‘If at all possible, commune with nature daily’ and ‘Hey, if it was ok for Elizabeth Murray....!!!’

    • Shared sink/ wash-room with shower. No toilet in barn. (short walk to house).

    • For studio maintenance rules, refuse/hazardous materials use and disposal -we will cover this during orientation.

    •Artists are expected to bring all supplies and materials needed for their artwork.

The Camargo Foundation’s campus includes twelve furnished apartments, a reference library, a music/conference room, an open-air theater, one artist’s studio with a darkroom, and one composer’s studio with a piano.

Note for visual artists

While Camargo can provide an artist studio, it is important to keep in mind that the Camargo Fellowship is a research-based residency, focused on research rather than production. The foundation does not cover shipping costs related to the transportation of artworks (to and from the foundation), or of any material work that might be produced during the residency.
